Re: Never Mined - Pindangoogly
You are greeted by cheers and such by hundreds of gnomes! Half a dozen kids rush Boddynock and start hugging him and he snorts his happiness in greetings to the gnomes. They obviously understand his speech!
The Inn itself is packed with gnomes of all ages, from babes in arms to doddering elders, all of them partying as if it was Brewfest! They are drinking freely and singing off-key, and, if the bucket that was just emptied on your heads is any sign, playing pranks with abandon. They all turn and laugh heartily as you are drenched, a serving girl pressing mugs into your hands as you stand there dripping. "Welcome to the Rabbit's Hole Inn! Relax! Enjoy! That was a bucket of our finest beer we just served you," smiles the young gnome, "Here's on you can drink the normal way!" Voices call out inviting you in as you consider an appropriate response.
As you look around, the place is quite crowded, nowhere to stand even barely, let alone sit!
An older fellow, so drunk he can hardly stand, takes notice of your plight. "Oy, you big folk havin' trouble? Sittin' on tables? Stuff'd too small fer ya? 'Sokay. We gotcha covered. We got the Big Room!"
"The Big Room!" the entire village calls back, laughter heavy in the air. Instantly about six young men go running to one side of the inn and open a door, leading to the barn sized wooden room you saw from the outside.
"Come on!" the men call. "Things are closer to your size over here!" They look inviting, but the sounds of a village's stifled chuckling never sounded so ominous before.
PARTY!
