The Snapping Line Inn
The Snapping Line is built from the wooden framework of half a dozen old fishing ships. Lobster crates and frayed fishing nets are stacked around the entrance. When the characters enter the inn, read or paraphrase the following aloud:
PLOT: Down Came a Blackbird - Part 2: A Night in Moon Lantern
Crossing the threshold, you smell freshly cooked seafood, baked bread, and sweet ale. Lobster motifs are daubed across the walls and bar, and a fire burns brightly in the large stone hearth. The tavern is welcoming but serves only a scattering of customers this evening. Near the door, you spot a noticeboard with several circulars pinned to it.
Notices attached to the board.
