The Ireem Chronicles

The Thirsty Djinn returns to The Good Knight Tavern!

After days of sitting empty, with stocks in low reserves and not even a tinkling of a bell on a pretty dancer's foot, two unlikely forces joined together after they couldn't stand to see the waste any longer. With flintlocks and spears drawn, a small group of both Bedouin and Pirates moved in to raid what was known to the citizens of Ireem as The Thirsty Djinn, looking to swindle the barrels of rum and take all they could from the till. Luckily they were met with zero opposition, and they proceeded right to the after-party, getting drunk and dancing the night away.

Sources tell Chronicle's reporters that the Djinn who had formerly operated the tavern, a nasty little vampire who took far too much pleasure in diabolical acts such as cutting the wings off of Fae, had been asleep for many weeks prior to the take-over. The undead left in charge, known about the city for his attraction to mischief and biting off more than he could chew, was most likely busy and tied up with other issues when the group moved to ransack the business.

A notorious pirate and new proprietor of the Good Knight Tavern, Majid Axel, spoke with a Chronicles reporter, looking happier than camel who had just been milked. "We've been so busy, since re-opening the bar! Travelers, townsfolk, why, even the Sultana and her guards have stopped in to have a drink!"

A citizen whom we caught on the streets had this to say about the change. "I am glad to see the little tavern thriving again, with good ale to quench your thirst, alongside beautiful and talented dancers to entertain your eyes." The citizen then crinkled their nose, lifted a hand to pinch it and whispered, "I just wish the pirates would take a bath before they go to work! It takes a lot of rum to forget the stench you're sniffing!"

However, there is some concern that the two pubs in the city are now both owned by the same cohort of slavers and their Bedouin subjects. “This really is a bad news to the citizens of Ireem,” an irritated lawyer told us, “I strongly suspect that both pub are actually run by the same group for profits reasons, and that is bad news to the consumers. We will be keeping a close eye on them and report any price fixing activities if they arise.”
