Hi Sir @Ed Greenwood ! Do you know what was the outcome of KarselTyn Lylyl-Lytherraias's discussion with Queen Moonflower about the acceptance of good drow on Evermeet?

Queen Amlaruil Moonflower knew that the older sun elf families would never accept drow into Evermeet, but individuals of any race can be admitted “at the king’s pleasure” or “at the queen’s pleasure,” no matter how much this may displease other citizens of Evermeet, even the High Council, which is how Karsel’lyn Lylyl-Lytherraias came to be on Evermeet (albeit secretly). Should someone attack, cast magic upon, or attempt to bind or confine such a “Royally Accepted” individual, the face and badge of the monarch accepting them appears before them, glowing in midair and accompanied by a fanfare.
Queen Amlaruil promised Karsel’lyn Lylyl-Lytherraias that individual good drow would be admitted if she approved of them, but there would be no “immigration of all good drow” and word spread about it. The Royal Council that governed after her continued the acceptance of the nine good drow Amlaruil Royally Accepted, but this infuriated such sun elf conservatives as Imdarm Rylstarnan and Huelve Onthalone as deeply as it had in Amlaruil’s day. They never attacked any Royally Accepted, but they spied on them both openly and covertly, (vainly) awaiting any moment they could deem “treason” or betrayal of Evermeet.
