So, they can heal by the time we make it to the castle so he can be finished off my Everyone who needs a few minutes with him. We pull into the town and I’ve checked with my people. The local bar that we need to check out first is called The Old Crow. All species are welcomed there. The owners are a pair of bears. Husband and wife who opened this place up about twenty years ago. Always a space where all are welcomed. As long as they follow the rules “Don’t start no shit in the bar.” That is what the sign over the bar states. Simple as that. My team is in place.

He got out of his truck and headed towards the pub. From the outside, The Bear Trove Tavern appeared to be a typical small-town pub with a rustic wooden sign creaking gently in the breeze. Faded lettering spelled out the tavern’s name, accompanied by a worn but endearing depiction of a bear clutching a frothy mug. Entering The Bear Trove Tavern, Dean was greeted by the warm, inviting glow of amber lights reflecting off polished wooden surfaces; the air was thick with the mingled scents of aged whiskey, freshly brewed beer, and the faint, lingering aroma of grilled food from the kitchen

Holding his head higher and puffing on his chest. “It’s none of your business how I got here. Now, if you aren’t going to order a drink, I have others to attend to.” He muttered. “Very well, I’ll take an ale. Actually, make it a double I have time to kill.” With a nod, he turned and grabbed two steins. Filling them before placing them before me. I handed him two gold coins. He grabbed them, stuffing them in his apron before moving on to the next person at the bar. I shifted from the bar and headed to a table at the far end of the tavern.

Helena. I read the name on her tag and I smile back at her. She has such a sweet contagious smile. "Bring her a bottle of Hennessy and two bottles of Pabst for me." "A bottle of Hennessey and two bottles of Pabst coming right up!" The sweet barmaid says, after writing down our order. "You love your bear, huh?" "I am more of a whiskey person but since I offered to babysit someone I think a couple of beers will do."

The Capital feels like it’s a lifetime away from here. Crossing the street, I duck into the tavern before I can think of any reason not to. Inside the game is on, on a television hanging up in one corner. A heavyset man stands behind the long wooden bar, drying a glass with his bar towel. When he spots me, he seems surprised but not alarmed. On the wall opposite the bar, by the windows, are a series of high tables with chairs to match.

We headed up a short hill, following the main flow of cars, and the houses began to get more spread out, until they disappeared entirely, replaced by a cute little downtown area. The suburbanites were out in force. Lots of boomers in fancy outfits, a few packs of teenagers, little kids running from bench to bench. I found a halfway decent spot called Parlor Twelve and held the door open for her. We sat at the bar toward the far side, with our backs to the wall, and a good view of the door. I didn’t plan on practicing good defense, but shit, might as well anyway. The place was an upscale gastropub sort of thing, with lots of metal and repurposed wood, the lightbulbs giving off that warm orang

The tavern had become a central gathering place for the residents, where they could enjoy the latest alcohol creations from the city and engage in conversations about their day. The tavern was predictably packed by the time Zikk arrived. Boisterous laughter and lively chatter filled the air, accompanied by the unmistakable aroma of alcohol.

Ken'ichi sighed while looking at the shop's sign, Great Blue Booze. *Great Blue Booze is like a small tavern. Famous around the area because of its quality wines, beers, whiskey, etc. "Oh, Ken! What brings you back here?" Asagi-san noticed me outside and opened the door.

But no matter how persistently the beautiful women and the noisy men probed, the battlefield was never a topic given life. The bar smelled of old pinewood and uncured leather, which was very different from most bars. The barkeep, when asked about it, attributed it to the tables and seats in the bar, spinning a claim on how pinewood had something to do with their creation.
