The exterior of The Guile's Bile is poor at best. Though it is in better shape than the rest of the buildings in the slums, that does not say much about the place. Corpses in various degrees of decay hang from nooses, people who lost it all and found that the booze at the Bile was a good last drink before they ended themselves. No one has bothered to take them down. In front of the building, beggars, crooks, whores, and the like jostle about, some sitting on boxes, most on the ground, and a rare few in the remaining patio chairs. The is betting on fights outside the Bile, with the loser either dead or further in debt, and the winner clinging to life, or out of debt. Sian Roulette is what this barbaric arena is usually called because of it: You either end up out of debt, dead, or both once the fight is over.

Once you force your way past the ramble that haunts the front of this tavern, you are immediately greeted with a gritty atmosphere. Within the Guile's Bile, you see sickly prostitutes draping themselves over crestfallen men who are drowning their sorrows in some pathetic swill. Fights are common here, and though there are bouncers, the fight usually is allow to take it's course before both parties are thrown out, without care if the unconscious one is dead or alive. The tables left standing are held together by string and hope. The bar is scarred beyond any repair that the bar can afford, and there are holes in the ceiling, some into the near empty rooms, others into a hallway. No one knows what exactly is on the second floor, and not many bother asking. A gruff, one eyed Orc by the name of Grahlash is the owner and only bartender of this place. Those who make fun of his name is usually has to be dragged to a healer, if they survive.

If you want something that isn't exactly legal, but isn't specifically declared as illegal, he can point you to the 'marketeer' of the week. The marketeer can usually be found sitting in the tavern's only booth, usually receiving some 'favor' from a local girl, and is willing to get you anything you wish, so long as the price is right. This price does not need to be coin. The marketeer enjoys dealing in favors, but he would be satisfied with coin. No matter who the marketeer is, he or she is always tight lipped as to where they get their good from, and who they work for. A single slip usually ends up with a new marketeer, and the previous one found in a back alley lying in a pool of blood.

To those down on their luck, The Guile's Bile will probably be your stopping point... for the best or the worst.

Menu
Stale bread and choice drink - 10 gold
Babu's Grog - This nasty concotion was first brewed by a rather nasty Salixian in an attempt to make something 'worth drinking' in Sie. It is hard to swallow, and usually does not stay down, but is moderately strong. 15 gold
Noble Leftovers - Made from the discarded parts from better quality drinks, the Noble Leftovers is the 'best' drink outside the city walls. Though flavorful, this drink is incredibly strong, and people only buy it for 'special' occasions. 25 gold.
Dead Man's Brew - This drink has muted flavor, and a kick that makes even lifetime drinkers flinch. It has a reputation since it is, for some reason, allowed in the Elf's Graces. 35 gold
