Most of the major powers of the Wilderlands consider Damkina an archaic backwater of
little strategic importance so foreign spies are rarely present in the city and if they were
they would be more likely concerned with their own countrymen who were visiting the city rather
than Damkina itself.
It is also thought that the various factions within the city do not employ professional spies
which is not to say that information does not change hands for coin on a fairly regular basis.
In particular members of the
Thieves' Guild are known to find that keeping their
ears to the ground will keep them in drinking money. The Temples (including the Closed Temple),
the nobles and the Guilds will all pay for relevant information so secrets are hard to keep
in Damkina. This makes the total lack of information on who supports the
Closed Temple all the
more remarkable.
