The Old Dwarf

The Old Dwarf was a long-standing tavern in the capital city of Cormyr, Suzail.

Description
The Old Dwarf stood on Suzail's Promenade, across the avenue from Cormyr's Royal Court. The old tavern had deep wine cellars, one of which hid passage to Castle Obarskyr. Each of the oaken wine casks was illuminated by its own candle. A heavy iron spell-warded gate separated the cells from the passageways to the castle.

History
The Old Dwarf existed as early as several human generations before the 14 century DR, and it was believed that the taver's wine cellars were dug out by its original owner the "Old Dwarf" himself. It was also believed that Azoun Obarskyr IV, his father, and an unknown number of Obarskyrs before them, used the passage between the castle and the tavern during their numerous amorous excursions.

As of the, Old Dwarf's entrance was illuminated by a hanging lantern above it.
