The Sleeping Fox

One of the few two-story buildings in the Bastion, the Sleeping Fox was the third structure to be built and originally served a simple housing role. Since then the town expanded, and the Fox changed to what it is today - the first and only tavern of the New World. Being the only tavern in the Bastion, it is commonly visited but rarely full. A band, down on their luck, performs here daily, and games are organized each evening. Lanterns light up its interior in the evening, large windows serve the same purpose during daytime. Heavy fumes are omnipresent within, at times mixed with the smell of well-acclaimed broth.

The Sleeping Fox was named as such so as to pander the egos of adventurous folk, people that believe themselves cunning enough to survive the wilds, taking on tasks for the community many sane men would avoid, and taking a rest here whenever they return, if they return. A far better choice, deemed Harriet, the tavernkeep and barmaid, than "The Reckless Fool" or any such alternatives.
