Bards of renown
The Crossing
[Bards' Guild, Commons]
Always a flurry of activity, the guild commons is a place where bards young and old meet to trade tips, tales, and motifs. Thick, ruby-colored carpeting lines the floor while gold-laced red velvet curtains decorate the walls. Padded benches surround the area, a few already in use by travelling musicians resting their tired legs.
You also see the Bard Leader Silvyrfrost, a shining mirrorlike portal, a simple brass stand with a guild register on it, a sturdy maple display with a broken cutlass on it, a glittering silver wind chime and a renown scroll.
Obvious exits: east, out.

Riverhaven
[Bards' Guild, Guildmaster's Office]
This niche off the Great Hall still shows signs of its original purpose as a storage area. Warm hooked rugs scattered on the floor and bright woven hangings on the wall can only soften the ragged scars in the stone where casks and crates were once stacked. Tucked rather awkwardly in the corner, a heavy desk vies for room with an iron pot-bellied stove.
You also see the Guildleader Tasdrean and a renown scroll.
Obvious exits: west.

Muspar'i
[Bards' Guild, Guildleader's Office]
A large curved desk is positioned to face visitors entering the office of the Guildleader. Several worn benches and chairs line the walls for students to wait or assemble for an impromptu class. Just inside the doorway, a glass display rests on a scorched iron tripod.
You also see an ornate walnut door, a renown scroll and the Bard Leader Selinthesa.
Obvious exits: none.

Shard
[Liani's Heaven, Private Table]
A holdover from a time when wearing the symbol of the Bard's Guild was a death sentence and secrecy was necessary, this private table has now become a permanent fixture of the tavern as a reminder of those times. Scrolls are laid out on the table, the elegant mark of a skilled calligrapher across their surface.
You also see a renown scroll and the Bard Leader Macfrae.
Obvious exits: out.

Ratha
[Lileyew's Workshop, Office]
A broom, its bristles frayed with use, leans crookedly against the corner of a battered pine desk. A handful of oil paintings vie for wall space with a curious array of antique instruments and an oddly-shaped carved wooden mask.
You also see the Bard Guildleader Lileyew and a renown scroll.
Obvious exits: west.

Hibarnhvidar
[Bards' Guild, Guildleader's Office]
Although small, this office feels larger due to what appear to be windows. A second glance, however, reveals that they are actually landscapes, similar to those in the entry hall of the guild. A worktable holds some scrolls, but any guild records seem almost to be an afterthought, as the majority of the surface is covered in various containers of paintbrushes and paints. An easel in the corner displays another picture, of which the artist is either proud, or lacks wall space for display.
You also see a renown scroll and the Bard Guildleader Yaziyi.
Obvious exits: out.
