Firesong Suramar Consulate

History
Entilzha Firesong had planned with ally Morgane Devaux to establish a small presence in Suramar for House Firesong after hostilities wound down. With House of Devaux eager to use its relationship with House Firesong to pursue trade and security interests, House Firesong keen to maintain a modest presence in the city of their ancestors, talk of the mission was raised very soon after the fall of Elisande, as Entilzha and Morgane both wished to have the Firesong Suramar Consulate recognized by law before the city either turned deeply inward, or became entangled in outside affairs as Quel'Thalas did. With the valor of the Thera-dora and the personal danger taken by Lord Firesong and his men, a consulate in the north of the city was agreed upon, on lands formally owned by House Devaux. Devaux and Thera-dora guards patrol the space outside, though the interior of the mission is considered the territory of House Firesong under the alliance with House Devaux.

However, responsibility for the compound belongs ultimately in the eyes of the Suramar government to House Devaux, whom though skeptical, view a weak, closely related House (Entilzha was required to document his lineage to the time of the Highborne, and identified his ancestor Tor'delan Firesong among the annals of Suramar's vast library. Tor'delan was proven to be a direct ancestor of Entilzha, having lived and trained in Suramar, he disagreed with the rest of his family and remained firmly in Suramar, ultimately falling in combat before the dome was risen.

House Firesong's own extensive annals from Vash'jir and beyond corroborate what was found among the Suramar records, and Entilzha was able to prove descent from a citizen of Suramar at the time of the collapse, greatly aiding the process. However Entilzha does not carry Suramar citizenship on account of not having been born there, but such may be possible for future children.

The consulate, a small structure on the interior, not larger than a common home though with a large cellar, is used to promote trade with Quel'Thalas, interest in the Firesong-Devaux Bergerac Vineyards, and serves as a de-facto base for the Thera-dora, and location from which those not capable of doing so themselves, may travel between Suramar City and Belore'aran.

House Firesong hopes the modest presence, combined with the Thera-dora and close alliance with House Devaux, will cement the Sin'dorei family's long term interest in the city, and serve to create a lasting bond regardless of which way future political winds blow. The young heiress to House Firesong, Ysandre Firesong, is expected to take a prominent role at the consulate as she ages, being fluent in Shalassian from her exposure at Belore'aran.
