The Net and Root is a welcoming dockside tavern and inn, beloved by the fishing and farming communities of Shatar. Under the watchful eye of its owner, Braska Mull, this establishment provides hearty food, robust ale, and comfortable lodging. Known for its rustic charm and practical comforts, the Net and Root serves as a gathering point for locals, travelers, merchants, and the occasional adventurer.
Situated prominently on the carved stone docks of Shatar, the tavern overlooks the serene waters of Lake Weng. Its sturdy timber-and-stone construction is designed to withstand harsh lakeside weather, offering warmth and respite to patrons coming ashore.
Owned and operated by Braska Mull—a gruff, barrel-chested ex-sailor with a sharp memory and discerning eye—the Net and Root benefits from his disciplined management. Braska is assisted by his daughter, Rinna Mull, who oversees finances and logistics, his teenage son, Ferren Mull, who tends to customers and harbors dreams of distant lands, and Marla Venn, Braska’s partner, whose skillful food preparations and pickled delicacies enhance the tavern’s menu.
Offerings: Freshly-caught lake fish dishes, hearty root vegetable stews, locally brewed ales, pickled goods, and comfortable overnight accommodations.
Patronage: Local fishermen, farmers, passing traders, adventurers bound for Citadel Amnur or Citadel Rashturl.
The Net and Root resonates with warmth, laughter, and community spirit. Evenings are often filled with tales of the day’s fishing triumphs, farmers’ anecdotes, and news from distant ports brought by visiting merchants. Occasional musical entertainment or storytelling provides further diversion, enhancing the tavern’s appeal.
