The Roc's Nest Building / Landmark in Hijr | World Anvil

The Roc's Nest

Original (poor) art done by me!
"This is my little slice of stone and hearth. My tavern, my heart. I found many years ago that I enjoy spending time among the smallfolk, so a place like this in the Squat district makes sense. Enjoy your stay, and let me know if you need anything" - Shem'Dahl, Stone Giant bartender and tavern owner.

Architecture

Carved from a single stone, this massive stone giant structure was built to accommodate both it's massive owner (situated in a pit behind the bar), and the smaller patrons that meet here to eat, drink and rest.
