Before your visit

  1. All visitors must report to Reception and sign the visitor book.
  2. Visitor badges must be worn at all times. Where a visitor's titles do not fit on the badge, Reception will abbreviate.
  3. Weapons should be left at Reception. (Mr. Gorzug has been granted an exception, on the grounds that he declined.)
  4. Visitors arriving by portal are asked to use the main entrance on subsequent occasions.
  5. The premises team may ask for help with the drains. This is optional.

A note from Reception

Our most reliable visitor is Tazgul of the House of Serat, Commander of the Vale Watch, who now signs in without being asked twice. This is an improvement on most human visitors, who insist that they don't need to because their visit will only take a minute.

Mrs. Doyle

Office Manager
