This is a moderate inn and tavern. Many locals will bring clientel here for business or just to hang out in the tavern. It has a very open and airy feel to it.
As you enter the bar the floor seems to stretch out endlessly infront of you. The deep green marble is decorated with a billowing swirl of greys and white dancing across the floor forever trapped within the marble. There are no apparent seams in the floor leading you to believe it all to be one piece of marble. Following your eyes up the wall you see that the rest of the room is none the less impressive. The smooth slate walls are a deep bone color. Elaborate paintings of flora hold the room together. A dizzying maze of intertwing vines and leaves, it eases your mind as your eyes follow its trail throughout the room.
Five elegant marble pillars rise up from the center of the room, merging to form a circle upon the floor and the ceiling with a sunburst look to the outside of the ring. Their stark white look jumps out in drastic contrast to the rest of the room. In between the pillar's layers of marble are thin layers of jade, one for each color of the Dragons. Upon the floor at the center of the pillars a small pool of water sits. Looking within you see small bits of jade and other small currency dropped in the bottom of the pool. Shimmering in the reflection of the water you see the ceiling. Looking up at the center of the pillars you see what the pillars are holding up. A large slab of azure, speckled with its white and green flecks ... almost remeniscent of the night's sky on a clear night.
The tables are all round with matching clothes to corolate with the pillar of jade they are closest to. The bar keep and women of the tavern are also dressed to match. The pine wooden bar at the end seems rather small in comparicon to all of the earthen splendor around you, but as you approach you realize it to be nearly 25 feet long.
The rooms they rent out are just as well cared for as the main area. The beds have fresh linens and towels also in the colors of jade. A pine stand sits next to the bed, large enough for your personal belongings you wish not to venture to far from. If you are lucky enough, or paid enough to receive a window the view is quite lovely. Most windows look out across the city towards the river, those that don't have exquisite flowers growing on the sill of the window. Each room comes with a ceramic basin and pitcher, as well as a bed pan. Those who have ventured enough of your coin to purchase a full bath are treated to a ceramic lion footed tub etched around the edges with the same flora design as that in the main area. A light gold inlay runs within the etching adding a dazzling effet against the white ceramic tub.
Gameplay: The rooms dimensions are 50' wide by 125' long by 30' tall. The pillars are rougly 8' apart form each other and the center is 20' across the circle. There are four layers of jade in each pillar, removing them would destroy the pillars and cause the ceiling to fall in. The coins in the pool are not of any substantial worth.
The bar keep has a club behind the bar and the women may have a dagger under their skirt if they feel they need it. Drinks are moderately priced, food is available if the characters are spending the night. If they are not, it is available ... but more expensive. Bread and cheese are among the most common foods served to those not staying.
Rooms are highly priced but not obsence to a well-traveled person. Each room has a bed with sheets, a small stand for your belongings, a wash basin and bed pan. Rooms with windows are extra as are rooms with full baths.
