The heavy oak door groans shut behind you, swallowing the last bite of crisp night air. Inside, the Hearthstone Tavern swims in the amber glow of hearth-fire and the dense, comforting scent of spilled ale, woodsmoke, and warm bodies. Elves murmur in a shadowed corner, dwarves roar over foaming tankards, and a cluster of scarred dragonkin argue in low tones near the flames. Behind the polished bar, Kaelen wipes a glass with slow, tired hands, his gaze lifting as you step inside. The din rises to meet you—a wall of laughter and layered voices—but one stool sits empty, its wood worn smooth. Will you take it?
