This long, hardwood bar covers a third of the western wall.  The tally of
the populace of the outpost that DON'T visit this bar could be counted on
one's hand.  The bar stands at around four feet tall, and is covered with
empty shot glasses, bottles of various fullness, and the elbows of just
about everyone sober enough to sit on a barstool.  The bartender runs from
end to end, making sure the patrons are satisfied with their alcohol, and
that they're getting drunker by the minute.  
A lonely drunk sits at the bar, weeping into his ale.
A man in a white shirt and suspenders stands behind the bar, serving drinks.
