HIRING GUARD

Hiring one guard for the premises.

Man or woman is fine. Must be reliable. An agent's skill-set is preferable, but a sturdy and muscular individual would not be amiss either.
Special talents and interests will be regarded highly.

Successful candidates will be paid a generous weekly stipend, and enjoy free liquor and meals. There is potential to lodge on site later.


☘️      ☘️      ☘️

Come in and see Ms. Hlavek, or leave a letter at the bar.

CULTISTS BANNED FROM THE MINER'S MERRIMENT

All those who subscribe to the 'fifth revelation' nonsense are barred from our establishment.
The horse-trough outside is the only place they'll be drinking from.

For information regarding the whereabouts and favored fox-holes of these fanatics, please inquire with management.

KROFBURG'S MILITIA WELCOMED!

In a show of gratitude, members of the Krofburg Militia will be entitled to drinks and meals at half the usual price.
May the town's finest find comfort and merriment here.

A note is placed on the local boards and the door of the establishment.

Quote
BANNED: ALBIAH OF THE CHAPEL OF SCOOM AND ITS FIENDISH COMPANION

Albiah of the Chapel of Scoom and its horned companion who dresses as a military officer are banned from the Miner's Merriment.

These foul demons are not permitted within the establishment, no matter their business. They will be shot on sight, or the local guard fetched.

Any witch-hunters desiring information about these individuals who have the stupidity parade around with their vile visages uncovered should visit the bar.

Sincerely, Management.

// Werps, wrong account, whatever.

WORK AVAILABLE FOR COURIERS

We often have notices that need to be delivered down to Vallaki and placed in prominent locations.
With a payment of two-hundred fang for your trouble, this can be a nice complement to your regular deliveries between Vallaki and Krofburg.

To collect a batch, see Ms. Hlavek at The Miner's Merriment.

House Rules

Quote
HOUSE RULES

No oxen inside. If you drag your beast of burden indoors repeatedly after ignoring a first warning, it will be shot.

Do not brandish your weapon indoors. Keep it fastened to your baldric or bandolier.

Close the door behind you. Yes, it does close as well as open. A marvel of architecture.

This is not an inn. You are not permitted in the upstairs without permission.
If you decide to host a clandestine meeting there, know that the walls have ears.
A transcript will be published for the amusement of patrons.

If you decide to ignore these simple rules, which are rooted in common sense, your description may find its way to the local militia.
That would be unfortunate, wouldn't it?

FOR THOSE SEEKING TO WOO

Be prepared to present a certificate of good health from a priest.
Our staff do not want to court with warts, kiss with rashes, or tenderly embrace boils.

Else-wise, our small and cosy team look forward to spending quality time with you.
Do inquire today if you would like some 'quiet time' with one of them.

Sincerely, Management.
