Serving Britannia's Finest Ale for the Past Four Years!
Happy Hour every Wednesday from 8pm Central to Close!
Great Britannian Meat Out! |
Hear ye, hear ye! I received this from Desdemona: Fine ladies and gentlemen of Britannia, and rogues as well! The fine proprietor of Kazola's Tavern has agreed to allow me to hold a small event in conjunction with the Happy Hour of March 20th. This event is the Great Britannian Meat Out! Basically, I'll be promoting the idea that eating meat is a grand idea for dragons, but not so for humans, orcs, and others of the civilized races. I've arranged with Kazola to provide food for the evening, food that will not involve the sacrifice of animals or fish. Also, I shall be providing cookbooks with exotic ingredients for the cooks amongst us. In addition, if provoked into doing so, I shall share my views on living a life without harming animals... and the appropriateness of beginning anew so close to the Vernal Equinox. Blessed be! (Note: this is being held on the same date as the "overworld's" Great American Meat Out which I support, and the cookbooks accordingly have recipes to be used in that world. To learn more, visit FARM.) I'd like to take this chance to welcome Desdemona back into the worlds of Britannia. It's great to have you back! :) |
History Section Now Open! |
I'm pleased to announce that the History section is now open! In here you can find stories of the Tavern's past, supplied by myself and many of the Tavern's patrons. While I will try to post as many stories as I can, many of the Tavern's tales can best be told by its loyal patrons. If you have a story you'd like to share, and/or any pictures of past events, please send them to me or post them to the Tavern Talk board, and I will post them there. |
Wednesday Night Happenings |
It was quite an exciting night at the Tavern this past Wednesday eve, with its biggest turnout yet since its reopening! An assassination and an orc invasion were only part of the evening's events. The Temple of Mondain's members visited yet again, and chilled the Tavern with their presence. When they noticed a young woman named Jasmine also at the Tavern, angry words broke out between ToM and Jasmine and her protectors. It seems Jasmine discovered the missing half of the Gem of Souls that XTerra (Mordain's former wife) had thrown into the river. Mordain sorely wants this half back so that he can reform the Gem and continue his quest for power. Jasmine, however, refuses to return it. Mordain was quite angry at her refusal, and stated only his respect for the Tavern rules kept him from slaying her on the spot. It would seem, however, that the Temple of Mondain sees no wrong in sending secret assassins to the Tavern. As the ToM members were preparing to leave, an unknown man rushed into the Tavern, taking everyone inside by surprise. Before anyone realized what was happening, this unknown assailant killed Jasmine, and took off, with Dovolick from Order House Stonesoul chasing after him. We learned later that this unknown assailant was actually a member of ToM in disguise, and in fact a Gurtha Fea, one of Mordain's elite personal guards. After much confusion, things settled down, and Jasmine was successfully brought back to life with no visible harm done. She gladly accepted one of Kazola's fine ales, and rested with her friends closely guarding her and the Gem which was still in her possession. For more detailed news of Jasmine's story, the Gem, and those who seek it, please see the Daily Herald. But that was not all! Soon after ToM had left, a group of Orcs of Bloodrock Clan invaded the Tavern, demanding Kazola's ale as tribute and alarming everyone inside. Kazola quickly set out several pitchers, which pleased the Orcs tremendously. The Orcs then proceeded to drink themselves silly, yelling out their approval, and even performed the rare mating ritual right in the Tavern's library! Those in the Tavern were guardedly amused by all of this, and were quite relieved when the Orcs left. Some newcomers to the Tavern then asked to hear the story of its origin, which Kazola gladly shared. You can also find this story in our History section. Make sure to come to next week's Happy Hour, as we will have a special event hosted by one of Yew's most famous druids! |

Wednesday's Happy Hour |
Wednesday's Happy Hour was a rousing success! Many decided to come early, as they couldn't wait to partake of Kazola's free famous ale. Most astonishing was a surprise visit from the ghost of Tal'Mah'Rah, the former leader of the Temple of Mondain, seeking news of the lands and his Temple. He told the story of Mordain's introduction to the Temple of Mondain, and Mordain himself told the story of Mondain and how he obtained the Gem of Immortality. The evening soon became much less foreboding, as the tavern guests decided to play a round of Strip Darts! Congratulations to Captain Carmike, who survived the evening with most of his clothes intact! We then had a surprise visit from Ramirez of ToM, its newest initiate. Wei Lao Wei and Athelstan spent a good amount of time querying him about his father and his past. More fun is sure to happen next Wednesday, so don't miss out! |
Welcome! |
Well, I never thought I would do it, but I have!
I've created my first website. You might be asking, "First? You
already had a website!" That's true, but I did not create that
one. Colban mormr Yew, the original cook for the Tavern, did. In fact,
that's how I met him! He started visiting the Tavern in its earliest
days (even before it was blessed!) and expressed his desires to create
a webpage for the Tavern. I was flattered; this was something I had
been wanting to do, but did not have the knowledge to do so. I quickly
gave my permission, and within a few days, the original Tavern website
was up and running! |
