Halfway Tavern

The Halfway Tavern is located in Pelagiad, Morrowind, and is considered to be the social center of town. The tavern's name originates from the fact that Pelagiad itself lies roughly halfway between the townships of Seyda Neen and Balmora.
==Description==
This building has three floors. The ground floor serves as the tavern, where patrons gather to drink and converse. The Nerevarine can learn a lot about the Thieves Guild from the two members located here. One of them, Ahnassi, offers skill training unless she has moved to her house during the "Ahnassi, a Special Friend" quest. A small locked chest near Drelasa requires 23 Security to pick and contains a random quantity of gold (maximum of 10).
The basement is a fairly dark and dirty storage area. Other than a quality restore health potion, there are several ingredient containers and little else of interest here.
Ladia is upstairs in the hallway, offering skill training. Three bedrooms are located on this floor, one of which is available to rent from Drelasa for 10 gold. Drelasa will unlock the door at the end of the hall if the Nerevarine chooses to rent a room, otherwise it is locked and requires 20 Security to pick. An iron tanto is extremely well-hidden in the room, on the floor behind the bed, in between a wall tapestry and the wall itself. The southwest door is also locked and requires 20 Security to pick. There is some gold in the corner of the room, on the floor near the closet. A sorceress named Hrordis, possessor of the Belt of Sanguine Fleetness requested by the Morag Tong, can be found in the only unlocked room on this floor. She will promptly tell the Nerevarine to go away, and refuses to converse.
