Saddak's Inn is situated near the Arthiop gate where the causeway across the swamp starts.
It is the favoured tavern for
caravan merchants and outlanders in general. Bards are welcome to perform as Saddak
(who appreciates a good tune himself) knows it attracts business. It is the best place
in Zothay to hear tales of the outlands and if you buy Saddak a drink or tip him generously
he will supply many himself. He used to be a caravan guard and knows the lands well
from the city of
Kauran to the lands of Oricha.
The inn is also favoured by city guards with experience of the outlands who like a bit
of news from the outside world so there is rarely any trouble. The guards are welcomed
by Saddak and are believed to drink at a discount. It is rumoured that Kristas's spies
are also always present as are agents from further afield. It is said that what is
discussed in Zothay's taverns is known to the Tyrant within an hour, the Governor in two
and probably in
Quitak,
Ossary and
Tarantis within the week.
