I still don't get why you need an embassy. I don't agree that magic
from Pavis only works around Pavis. The general rune stuff in RQ
didn't work that way and they always had their Spirit ally and
battle magic, then in ONE hero wars supplement, which isn't official
someone postulates that Pavis worshippers can't use their magic out
of Pavis. Oh well YGMV!
