The Public House
Where the village gathers after dark — for warmth, for argument, and for belonging.
After sundown, the village ends up here. The public house is Stonetop's great hall — drinking, talking, arguing, singing, keeping warm — with floor space for travelers and a small stable for the town's horses under the same roof.
In a village without shops in the southern sense, this is one of the main rooms of civic life. News, grievances, visiting merchants, and seasonal anxieties all pass through it.
Hooks
Use the public house for homefront scenes that need witnesses: a stranger arriving, family tension boiling over, trade news, mourning, celebration, or a problem that becomes public before anyone can keep it quiet.
Notable features
