|This building has always been an enigma. Older than the sand masters, formed of a single block of white sandstone that can never be worn down.

The Diem of the Sand is headquartered in a building also known as the Diem. The Diem itself predates the existence of the sand masters. It is made of a single block of white sandstone that is thought to be eternal and everlasting.{{book ref|ws1|4}}

|The Diem is not well liked here. It is in debt and, from what I have seen, you will have a difficult time bringing the other sand masters to heel.

Public opinion of the Diem is currently very poor. The sand masters are known for being prideful and arrogant. The Diem has also taken on a significant amount of debt while producing little of value for society in quite some time. These complaints have led the [[Taishin]] to vote in favor of permanently disbanding the Diem's official status in Lossand. The vote was declared void and delayed for two weeks as Kenton, the acting Lord Mastrell, was not properly informed beforehand.
