Northern New Church, near the Snowford border

A well-kept tavern positioned as a meeting point between New Church’s craftspeople and Snowford’s academics. The food is better than most research-district establishments and the atmosphere quieter than Northward’s rowdier options. It also serves as an informal venue for public lectures, small debates, and the kind of slow conversation that needs a table and an evening rather than a desk and an hour.

Services: Food, drink, lodging (6 rooms, 8sp/night), semi-private meeting rooms

Notable detail: The back wall is covered in a mural depicting the founding of Chrysalis Labs. It is factually accurate in most respects but conspicuously omits several founding figures whose relationships with the Labs subsequently soured.
