About the Bloody Stump Tavern
The Bloody Stump Tavern's history dates back to approximately 920. Its name sake comes from a farmer who did not heed the advice of the local druids, who warned him not to chop down the elder tree on his property. Ignoring them, the farmer chopped the tree down. When it fell, blood gushed from the stump as if he had slain hundreds of men. when all was said and done, the farmer lay dead.
The stump and its roots make up the tavern's base. on cold winter nights, some say you can here the screams of the farmer in his everlasting torment. The Stump was originally used as a toll house for the ferry that crossed the river between Lake Trallon & Tarthan. The building was later listed as a salt store on a historic map of the area dated 1098. Over the years the building had many other uses including being used as one of Tarthan's jails. In its more recent history the stump fell on harder times & was abandoned for around 4 years until the White Lotus trade company purchased the building and used it as a trade office. Ming Na then ordered it to be moved to Travance. The proprietors of this establishment arranged to have this tavern moved brick by brick from Tarthan. Now, almost 300 years later, it is the home of one of the shining gems of Travance!
NOTE - ALL FOOD IS FIRST COME FIRST SERVE!!!
We have limited food storage, there is nothing that can be reserved. Thanks for your understanding.

Hold on I am sorry but did you say a ship with black sails commanded by the dead? I hope I can meet you hector and you can tell me more about this ship if it is not to much trouble.

Yar, I seen a ship with black sails that's crewed by the damned, and captained by a man so evil that Hell itself spat him back out. I have herd tales that a feet of ships set sail from the islands of seven lore to wage war. I would be happy to tell a few tales so long as the drinks flow and coin drops into my till. O expect from now on bar fights nightly at the stump....might as well give the town some place to let loose!
I will be happy to dependence wisdom such as but not limited too:
A friend can betray you, but an enemy will always stay the same.
Land was created to provide a place for boats to visit.
If ye can't trust a pirate, ye damn well can't trust a merchant either.
Take what you can, give nothing back.
If ye thinks he be ready to sail a beauty, ye better be willin' to sink with her.
There comes a time in most men's lives where they feel the need to raise the Black Flag.
It is when pirates count their booty that they become mere thieves.
The existence of the sea means the existence of pirates.
I leave you for now with this rattling around in your skull...
I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, A poet, a pawn and a king of drunks; I've been up and down and over and out, And I know one thing; Each time I find myself flat on my face, I pick myself up and get back in the race.

Master Strong, make no mistake I would love to share a drink or seven, but I do not know much more other then what I have already stated mate. Tho I know more then my fair share of old sea legends. In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life mate..... it goes on.

I can tell you now that I have heard of this ship, however; I do doubt the validity of this legend... But that is a discussion for later.
