It is said that the aroma of a Duskmire curry can be detected long before the tavern itself comes into view, guiding hungry travellers safely through the fog. \u26ab\ud83d\udc09<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Far beyond the misty marshlands of Duskmire, traders and travellers gather in candlelit taverns where great pots of curry simmer slowly throughout the day.
