The Prophet and Water
You make your way through the city of Arcsey until you come to a tavern, which is called The Prophet and Water, a spacious shabby rock tavern with a thatched roof that the locals know best for its witty banter with the waitstaff.
The Prophet and Water is a reasonably spacious building that is brightly lit, and very similar to the countless other taverns that you've come across in your times, right down to the specials board being somewhat battered with so many uses, and the dart board with many holes constantly seeing use. A worn and beer stained tapestry hangs from one wall depicting the history of the town. It's peak hour for The Prophet and Water and you can tell that the bartender is concerned about a fight breaking out.
Behind the counter is who you would assume to be the bartender, a prime adult aged human with wide, bony hips who is currently checking the stock levels of the beer on tap. You walk up to the bar, and strike up conversation with the woman, who introduces herself as Aryanna Rock, the acting manager of The Prophet and Water.
On offer today:
Aryanna says that they have some freshly brewed ale, although you soon discover that to be a lie; it's lukewarm, and barely carbonated. The house cheese is 2 Silver and is a dark, almost brown cheese which is almost liquid once you bite through the rind. It smells somewhat sweet, with a heady aroma, and tastes salty, but immediately the spice from the peppers takes over.

There are a pair of musicians warbling well known drinking songs. They have made an impromptu stage out of several tables. One of them seems to be tilting precariously. Cross and Pile:
An average sized man with a scar around the neck and tan skinned quite squat human sit around a large table, and take turns flipping a coin. As the coin flies mid-air, the kinda chunky human calls out the result, and guesses correctly, grabbing his meager winnings. Accommodation:
The Prophet and Water has 6 available rooms, which are spacious and nice and well cleaned. Because this tavern is priced for squalid patrons, it will cost 7 Copper to stay here for the night.
