Nikka's Inn

This inn is the place where the people of Lanren drink their worries away. The quality of the drinks is horribly low, but apart from the occasional traveling merchant, Nikka faces no competition in the game of selling drinks.

Every ingredient she uses originates from her storage room, which she won't let anyone into. Although her alcohol tastes like hot piss, she cooks the best fish soup in Lanren.

The Inn is built as close as possible to the road that goes through Lanren, on which adventurers, traders and troublemakers roam. Naturally, the inn sucks them in, and most stay for a night.

Often times, the foreign men who stay at Nikka's inn are charmed by her trustworthy personality, and tell her things they shouldn't. She knows much more than any other Lanrenians about the world outside the village, but never does she reveal the secrets she was told.

One of her most loyal customers is old Taar, a retired fisherman who insists he had seen Stellan, god of seas and change, while at his last fishing sail. Kalyn, the god's priestess, labels him as a heretic for "the god of change is formless".
