I have a follow up. How widespread is Thieves’ Cant within the Realms ? Can non thieves know it ? And how far is it spread across Faerun and other lands, continents, planes… Thieves' Cant is everywhere across the Realms. Many non-thieves (especially merchants who fence stolen goods, or just have to pay 'protection' $ to thieves) know a few words of it. However, it's hard to stay current in any language (or code) if you're an outsider.#Realmslore
