Spectacle, Entertainment, Thistle Hold

Spectacle

He who wants to test the postulate that wild partying makes it possible to raise the roof should dance his way to Spectacle. In the great, open salon the carousing goes on from nightfall until long afterdaybreak. Aside from barrels filled with cheap stut and even cheaper blackbrew, Spectacle’s foremost attraction is the entertainers. They perform in the midst of the guests – the barbarian fire artists, the Ambrian jesters, the stilt dancers from Ravenia, the snake-eater Kumuma and many others. Most popular is the group of dwarven acrobats that the owner, Golonas, has taken under his wing. Visitors from Yndaros are amazed, as they have learned to associate the dwarven race with pride, restraint and pure brutality.

You never see a glimpse of such traits among Spectacle’s acrobats, whose far from accomplished tricks and stunts make them appear more like jesters. Especially loved is the one called Dopey, who spends his evenings falling on his bum, being slapped in the face and having his clothes covered in everything from putrid fish to tar and feathers – always with the same strained look in his face and tears of anger trickling down his cheeks.
