This is going to be a month of taverns I think... This is the 1st one, the Sane Bard's Inn.
Many many years past, a group of adventurers passed by this way and camped in a little clearing among the trees. Their bard unknowingly had access to a rare type of music-magery - once they started singing, nothing could stop them until th...

A simple one level map of a medium sized ballroom this week. This is the first suggestion from your wish-list that tickled my fancy... and I managed to shoe-horn it into a Trinpari building.

Hey everyone, here is the sawmill to go with the sawmill owners villa from 2 weeks ago. It is a 2 level map (+ roof)... as I thought a bit of a loft area for mill worker accommodation might be a good idea - no kitchen though, as I figure they mostly eat at the owners house. It is also an alternative route to the small mill shop on the othe...
