So I see the Night Knives guild is active in Saerloon, as stated in a few Forgotten Realms sourcebooks.
However, I am receiving some confusion about the location of their activities.
Forgotten Realms Adventures sourcebook, it is said the Night Knives are an autonomous guild there, with no relation to "Night Knives" in other cities.
So did Paul Kemp change the location of their network or did he just expand their influence in his Erevis Cale books? I've read the main setting is the city of Selgaunt, a city the same sourcebook said where the Night Knives can be found and do their work in as well. (which is contradictory to what "FR Adventures" suggests)
So do the events in the Erevis Cale books regarding the Selgaunt Night Knives affect the Saerloon guild as well or are they still considered separate units? I read the entire guild was destroyed by a greater dread, but I don't know how that is so considering they have agents in both cities, not just Selgaunt. Does the Saerloon one continue to function? Did the Righteous Man rule over the guilds in both cities or was he mainly Selgaunt's leader?
Much appreciated for any details regarding this. I have a PC with a rogue tiefling from Thay now making his home in Saerloon and looking to join, so I am looking for as much official info as possible before I creatively fill in the blanks.

| You might want to ask Paul in his scroll. |
"These things also I have observed: that knowledge of our world is
to be nurtured like a precious flower, for it is the most precious
thing we have. Wherefore guard the word written and heed
words unwritten and set them down ere they fade . . . Learn
then, well, the arts of reading, writing, and listening true, and they
will lead you to the greatest art of all: understanding."
