Star of Celene
A half-elf bard from Coutwood purchased this small mansion and turned it into an inn that caters to others from Celene and their guests. This is the most popular inn and gathering spot for elves in the Free City. It is quiet and dignified, as befits an establishment for that ancient race.
All business is conducted in the old elvish language common to olvenfolk across the Flanaess. Others may enter, of course, but uninvited sorts are steered to a special room in the back where they receive indifferent service. The aloofness of the other guests and the employees is generally enough to dissuade such boors from returning. The current owner is the same half-elf who founded the inn, Finnobhar Aodhin.
The Star of Celene is quietly decorated, mostly in wood. The inn is large and airy, with elaborately carved wood furnishings and silk wall hangings. The floors are polished mahogany. The rooms are large, with a great deal of space between the tables. The restaurant serves a variety of excellent dishes, specializing in herbal salads and vegetable casseroles.
The Star of Celene features four comfortable apartments that are not for rent; instead, they are given gratis to official visitors from Celene or other elven realms. Fioranna Aielestriel is sometimes seen here, as are merchants and envoys from the Duchy of Ulek and elf tribes in the Gnarley Forest and Welkwood. She represents the interests of Nyrond in the Free City and has by virtue of her elven blood found a comfortable retreat in the Star. She often uses one of these apartments for her official business.
