Dare you try and find your way through this maze of angled rooms and twisting ways?
What kind of sick mind built this place anyway? Come in and find out.
A more upscale inn for the whole family. Just be carefull of the people in the next room, no they’re not staring at you from the upstairs balconey… they're not smiling quietly to themselves either.
A large towering edifice. Is it new or used? Beware whoever may be living inside, for you can see far from the battlements. And the main tower looms over all…
Another tiny cramped pub for that after work mug of ale. He may be open or not, depends on how busy he is in the cellars, hopefully brewing ale and not trouble.
Just your typical magic shop located on the corner of magic & vine. Don’t be rude and try to come in any other way but the front door either. View quietly, choose quickly, pay promptly and leave immediately for the shop may not be there tomorrow.
Located on a small outcropping of rock in the middle of a river. This is a small but defensible tower. Access is by both inland and to the sea due to the outflow from the interior swamplands and the inflow from the sea. Dare you disturb the owners?
Brave the dimly lit narrow alleyways to enter here – or come in through the front door. Either way, there’s good food and drink to be had. Possible secrets as well.
Although Clive’s wife got the other half of the business in the divorce settlement, he’s doing ok. He manages by renting out the spare rooms to whoever needs them. No questions asked, as long as they pay first. He also has another income… he may get the other half of the business back after all….
An above average tavern that’s open year round for any kind of business. Come in to rest your well traveled bones or make plans in the dimly lit “Dark Walk” of the cellars. As always, watch the balconies above you…
