Three Coin Carousel
the inn where deals go round
Lanterns and colorful pennants crisscross the low ceiling, and a steady stream of laughter and bartering noise fills the air. The scent of roasted meats, sticky spiced honey, and hot citrus wine rolls over visitors; a merchant choir in one corner trades bawdy jingles while clerks and caravan drivers shout quick offers. Tables are set with ledger-stained benches and small scales for weighing silver; runners dart between groups with sample bolts, wrapped parcels, and steaming trays. Light bounces off brass coins, and the whole room feels like a marketplace that decided to sit down and celebrate until dawn.
A painted wooden sign shaped like a brass coin on a string, the coin showing three interlocking dots; paint is bright but edges are worn and a small feather is tied to the rope
