As of 4715 AR, Zachrin Vhast was the high priest of Songbird Hall, a temple devoted to Shelyn in the then-Chelaxian city of Kintargo and the only good-aligned temple openly allowed in the city prior to the Kintargan Rebellion. As high priest under Chelaxian rule, Zachrin walked a delicate line between trying to mitigate the tyrannical Thrune control of the city and pacifying the often violent rebels who opposed it.

The efforts of Zachrin Vhasts's congregation have helped to maintain Kintargo's tradition as a haven for artists and creativity even with Cheliax's new devil-backed leaders, but this has meant advocating against outright rebellion and the inevitable bloodshed it would bring. Still, this is an easy life compared to Zachrin Vhast's previous role performing illegal Shelyn-blessed marriages in shadowy Nidal where being caught would have meant death.
