## Yuxue Tavern Opera

The local tavern-opera, a favourite of both locals and adventurers as a social drinking space. Tea is served in the mornings, while stronger drinks like alcohol are served in the evenings. Groups often come here for a drink, a chat, and perhaps a show, at the end of a long day.

The kitchens and backstage, where all drinks and food are kept, are strictly off limits to non-tavern staff. The staff may be persuaded to let you inside, but drunk adventurers who try to barge in are promptly kicked out of the kitchens by Tokki herself.

#### Points of interest

* The Yuxue Tavern Opera is run by High Committee member Tokki. You can see her serving up drinks at the bar, chatting with regular patrons and keeping troublemakers out of the premises.
* Opera shows and other performances. Cultivators can easily apply to perform as well.

#### Non-visual Features

* In the afternoons, the tavern is filled with a symphony of fragrant teas and sugary desserts. In the evenings, the aroma here changes to one of strong mead and hearty stews.
* No matter when you arrive, stepping foot onto the premises greets you with laughter and music, and is bound to pick your spirits up after a long day.

#### Visual Details not in Pictures

* The tavern hosts a dinner theatre every weeknight. Sometimes the stories told are short, but a single performance is more likely to span through the entire week. A list of ongoing and future shows is pinned to the walls of the tavern, and patrons can suggest which ballads they should perform next.
* There is also the occasional experimental afternoon show, often picking members of the audience to take part in the performance.

#### Layout

The Yuxue Tavern Opera is situated on the east of the Yuxue Estates, further away from heavy residential areas. This is for good reason - the tavern stays busy all through the night, so drunk, rowdy patrons are less likely to disrupt other residents’ sleep.

The opera theatre has a large stage and lit up by lanterns. The theatre often hosts famed bards and performers from all over Kara-Tur.

#### History

The theatre was built as a way to satisfy drunk cultivators in need of a way to flex their prowess, serving as an alternative to the infamous tavern brawl that happens often in other lands.

#### Any Other Details

Taverns are one of the main ways gossip gets around. If you wish to, you can hire certain people here to spread rumours...
