Last Drink Inn & Tavern
A humble little watering hole and Inn that stands at the crossroads where Ilaren's Stand meets the road between Storm's Edge to the west, The Spire to the east, and the fissure-laden wastes to the south east that make an approach to Umbral Caverns such a treacherous journey.
As the name implies, this is often the last stop for anyone seeking a trade caravan from Rharne into Cahryst and the Eternal Empire, or else a self-destructive adventure into the largely untouched and unexplored Umbral Caverns and the surrounding terrain. And while the Eternal Empire isn't a nation that prohibits the consumption of alcohol, when one comes from the extremely booze-positive nation of Rharne, with all its splendiferous brews, to the relative plainness of the Empire, it will indeed feel like a last 'hurrah' when they take a drink at this tavern.
The fighting pit is just under the shadow of Ilaren's Stand. Ilaren's stand is a geological stack of volcanic rock where Ilaren is said to have stood up to the advance of Faldrun's forces in ages past, and repelled him from advancing to destroy Rhrane. It's said she shouted at his volcanic spew, which created the oddly-shaped rock formation with a sonic blast that pushed the power of the fiery Immortal back. But then, it happened centuries ago and these accounts are apocryphal at best.
The fighting pit has many mini fissures and other pitfalls that less experienced or coordinated brawlers trip upon, and end up getting their face ground into the ashen soil. Therefore, agile grapplers are favored over flashy strikers, here at the Last Drink.
The Inn is run by a Qi'ora ex-slave called Bu-Spir-Aeil. He doesn't share much of his past or talk much, but listens intently to any patrons that want to spill their sorrows to him, before moving on in any direction.
The Tavern token for the Last Drink Tavern is a skull drinking an empty bottle emblazoned on a piece of tin.

Signature Brew ~ TIer 7 Moonshine
The Last Drink's Moonshine, playfully labeled 'Last Drink', is a powerful moonshine formulated from pomegranate sugars, which are grown in a nearby orchard just to the west of Ilaren's Stand. More flavor and kick than a typical moonshine makes this bottle of alcohol stand out. It has a definite sour note to it, and also a lingering aftertaste that resumes in a whole body warmth that persists for hours after imbibing. A favorite of those venturing into the dangerous lands southeast of Ilaren's Stand, near the Umbral Caverns and the fissure-laden terrain leading up to it.
