[Icemule Trace, Town Center]
The bustling town comes together in this square. Halflings dressed in varying fashions stand about, some chattering happily, others reclining on cloaks laid on the ground. One ancient halfling leans against the base of the large ice statue of a mule, snoring blissfully. A feeling of community pervades the area, putting you immediately at ease. You also see the white Valqon disk, a painted sign and a carved ice bench with some stuff on it.

You see Great Lord Khaitiff Golconda the Deceiver.
He appears to be a Dhe'nar Dark Elf.
He appears to be in his golden years and very tall. He has brooding dark eyes and dark skin. He has long, straight silver hair with a black streak running through it. He has a long face, a straight nose and long pointed ears.
He has a braided silver beard, a tattooed symbol of Fash'lo'nae on his forearm, a howling wolf tattoo on his neck, a tattooed symbol of Voln on his ankle, and a grey mouse tattoo on his waist.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a jet black shield, some silver streaked black wolf fur gloves clasped with emeralds, a wolf charm silver chain anklet, some fitted black velvet pants with braided silver trim, some calf-high black leather boots, a fitted black velvet shirt stylized at the cuffs with ivory wolf-head buttons, a gold ring, a black alchemy bag, a pair of black-tinted glasses, a rune-incised onyx Dhe'nar wristband, a wolf's paw crest, a black wolf fur cloak, a polished silver wedding band, an embroidered black silk gem pouch, a glossy obsidian nose ring, a onyx-inlaid black leather thigh-sheath, a vaalin chain, a copper and alexandrite earcuff, an immaculate ebon black rose, a double-breasted silver satin vest adorned with emerald buttons, a silver-chased black opal locket, a crystal amulet, and a faenor-banded smoky glaesine globe.

Groups of boisterous and cheerful halflings pass by rapidly. Most of them seem to be heading south towards the Tavern Burrow for entertainment or refreshment.

Upon entering the dimly lit room, you are startled by the row of round eyes staring at you from above. As your vision adjusts to the darkness, you realize that you are merely being watched by the many owl statues lining a plate rail high on the wall. It appears that each pair of eyes is formed by different gems, backlit by candles. A young hostess speaks in a low voice with new patrons. You also see a steep staircase.

Waitresses wearing feathered headdresses fashioned like the heads of owls work the room swiftly and quietly, trying not to interrupt the guests or the stage act.

The sudden sound of chattering halflings catches your attention and you can hear the words, "Murder?! Where is the constable!?"
Rubbing his hands gleefully, the Deputy suddenly rides up on a mule!
He glances at you and scoffs, "Thought we had some sort of lawless town 'ere, did ya? Well, this warrant for your arrest'll give you some time to think about law and order up here in the hills!"
With a quickness belied by his size, the deputy descends on you and before you know it, has you wrapped up like a package and thrown over the sagging back of the mule!
The deputy rides you back to the Captain's Quarters.
Arriving at the Jailhouse, the Deputy cracks his knuckles, gestures and utters a phrase of magic. Absentmindedly waving a hand at you, he magically strips you of your possessions, then shoves you over to a small, cramped cell. Unlocking and opening it, he swiftly pushes you in. "Enjoy your stay, varmint! If I had my way around here, ye'd be cleaning out the mule stables til the end of time!" he exclaims.
With a final snort, he locks the cell door shut, pulls a slightly mushed tart out of his pocket, and strolls off.
[Icemule Trace, Cell]
The low ceiling of this cell was obviously designed for the shorter races of Elanthia. The floor is covered with dirt and grime, and a distasteful scent lingers in the air. The only exit is a small steel door with a barred window in the center.
Obvious exits: none
All your confiscated items will be made available in the Jailhouse once you have paid your fine. You have ONE hour *real-time* to pay your fine *and* go pick up your items, or any and all items will be sold to charity. The timer starts NOW.
