Cloaksweep Alley
Cloaksweep Alley is located in Sea Ward, Waterdeep.
This wide, very short passage runs north off Zarimitar Street due north of the Courtyard of the Well. Its name comes from an incident involving the long-ago wizard Milist Samblin of the Many Cloaks - who, when set upon by thieves in this alley used a cloak that swallowed them whole in one flap. They were never seen again!
Today, the alley is notable as the usual vending place of a nameless old man who sells ear oil. Made of the fat of adders boiled down into oil, it is thought by many to be a cure for deafness when poured into the ears. I shudder at the very thought.
