The House of Wo
The House of Wo is named for its owner, Wo, a human ajami wizard from the lands far to the east. He has no other name, at least none that has been discovered. He left his homeland long ago.
Wo has never revealed why he came to Huzuz, but his skills have quieted any qualms. Wo is the best cook in the district, one of the best in Huzuz. The fare at his establishment is known for its excellence. Wo takes a personal hand in the preparation.
This leaves him little time for the other facets of his business, which are handled by Fayaniz al-Nokar , who serves Wo purely for the chance to learn some of the exotic magic that Wo can teach. To date, he has learned only a few spells, but knows that Wo can teach him more. Wo would rather cook, sit by the well with the guests, and gossip about the Land of Fate. Unfortunately, his command of Midani is weak, and this often leads to misunderstandings. Wo takes this in stride, offering an apology backed by a fresh helping of one of his exotic dishes.
The House of Wo is a four-storey structure, capable of housing several hundred travelers. It is seldom full, although the cafe is almost always crowded. Many citizens from the surrounding area come merely to eat at the cafe, such is Wo's reputation.
