Leaky Aristocrat
Above a set of worn wooden doors adorned with intricate carvings, a sign hangs featureing a ruddy faced man with wisps of white hair on his head eating a turkey leg. Inside is a large bar and wooden tables. Stools at the bar are carved from strange stone sculptures, while the wooden chairs at the tables are decorated to match their stone counterparts.
Behind the bar, a one-eyed goblin Glimmerclaw Embereye in a rust red vest sits beneath a sign that reads "Half-price for Halflings".
