Caravan & Trader News • Tendaily
An
amalgamation of many similar broadsheets over the years, the Waymoot
Times was created by the commingling of the old Calagar's Caravans and
Thaeler's Coinwatch broadsheets over a hundred years ago. It is something of a land trade equivalent to the Dock Ward Dispatch, though without the Dispatch's tremulous publication history and its propensity to gossip.
Today, it is one of the highest-circulation broadsheets in the city, and with good reason. It talks about caravans just arriving in Waterdeep and their goods, advertises caravan mustering and guard-hiring, reviews craftsmen and businesses who provide provisions and gear for caravans, and has a small army of editors happy to weigh in on shipping business trends and forecast the rise and fall of fortunes.
