[Balanor]

The spider queen of the drow is a popular deity among the humans of Thay. Her temple here is a black dome covered in silver spiderwebs, with the drow inscription Lolth tlu malla; jal ultrinnan zhah xundas (Lolth be praised; all victory is her doing) inscribed in gleaming letters over its portal. Worshippers attend midnight ceremonies here, dressed in long black robes and often decorated with pigments and wigs to make them look like drow. The drow themselves often attend these services and there are always one or two at the temple.
Thayan priestess Rhytella (CE hf C9) considers herself only an acolyte, although she has authority over her entire congregation. The “real” high priestess of Bezantur’s temple of Lolth is Triel Telenna (CE ef C12), a drow of the Underdark who visits the temple every few months to oversee operations, indulge a few sybaritic pleasures, and choose a handful of human followers to accompany her back to her realm. Exactly what happens to these chosen humans is not know; none has ever returned, but this does not lessen the fervor of Lolth’s congregation in Bezantur. Instead, most are of the opinion that the chosen humans are living lives of decadent splendor deep underground with their drow “brethren”.

Note from The Thayan - Triel Telenna is located within the locked dome in the lower level of the Temple. She has the typical Healer conversation attached to her.
