This hall is the largest space in town, and as such is often used for events -- weddings, calls to muster, or religious ceremonies. Owned by a family of sturdy halflings, when the hall is not being commandeered for such events it is a popular destination after a hard day's work. The mead hall has changed its name with each proprietor; first, it was Hank's, but then Hank passed it on to his daughter Mary, and it became Mary's, and so on. Currently, it's owned by Severan, a human with elvish heritage who was adopted by the family as a foundling. Severan's height is hardly an issue for the family, however; it means he doesn't need the ladder to reach the barrels.
