Jora’s Last Inn & Emporium

At the feet of the Mountains. Warm and welcoming. Big old stone fireplace. Jora offers decent rooms, food and drinks. Also sells a selection of equipment. A young woman runs the establishment. Her name is Jora Sneachda There are several other patrons in the INN. (Interaction with other patrons: roll intrigue. separate rolls on each group, +5 if you buy drinks for miner, +5 if you spend time with the priest discussing beliefs.,

1. Old priest - Brown Monks clothes. he drinks hot tea.
2. You see a party of visually shaken miners silently drowning their sorrow in a corner of the room. Chatting with them reveals that they were part of a mining caravan visiting an obscure outpost, only to discover nothing but a deserted ruin filled of horribly mutilated corpses. That is when the blizzard hit, and they stumbled to the bottom of the mountain to find this INN. If asked where the ruins are, they all reply at the top of the mountain. but they only stumbled across the ruins in a storm, and it will be buried under 10 feet of snow.
3. Jora - sits in the far corner of the great room, farthest away from the fire. (Fairy Lore check; she has fairy blood, if questioned about her heritage she shrugs and asks if "that is a problem?" she places her hand on the short sword at her side. (MODS: +5 if the party buys supplies, +5 if they buy a room.) she will only answer one question and then will move away saying she has something to take care of.

Common Answers: Weather

1. "It was a nice fall day, and he was camped near the mountain, when the storm came. That was a week ago. Very unusual weather!"
2. "We work for Sir Hywel The banneret of West Lavington and search for some old gold and silver mines that the Romans used 100 years ago. Weather changed overnight; we were prepared for the cold but not this."
3. "It is the weather, who knows. I have been here for 10 years, and it is never the same under this mountain! I see it snow in the summer sometimes."
