The Moonlit Goose

Built on the edge of Goose Town over an old spring, the tavern began as a simple ale-house for drovers. Years ago a traveling soothsayer stayed a fortnight and left a carved feather behind; after that, the place began to draw those seeking small visions. Greta Maris bought the place after a brawl left the previous owner owing her a favor — she made a pact with a minor goose-spirit that saved the tavern during a winter blight, and since then The Moonlit Goose has been equal parts refuge, rowdy inn and divination hub.

History

Built on the edge of Goose Town over an old spring, the tavern began as a simple ale-house for drovers. Years ago a traveling soothsayer stayed a fortnight and left a carved feather behind; after that, the place began to draw those seeking small visions. Greta Maris bought the place after a brawl left the previous owner owing her a favor — she made a pact with a minor goose-spirit that saved the tavern during a winter blight, and since then The Moonlit Goose has been equal parts refuge, rowdy inn and divination hub.

Quirks

A dozen live geese wander the common room at low light; one spectral goose occasionally appears above the hearth and honks once for each honest secret told in the tavern. Patrons often settle disputes with 'honker-bets' (staring contests with a goose). The Harrow Lamp flickers in time with lies.

Lore

Locals say Goose Town was named for a flock that followed an exiled oracle centuries ago; the flock vanished atop a hill where the first geese-worship shrine now lies. The 'Gander of the Crescent' — a bound spirit of moonlight and flocking — is whispered to bless certain nights when the moon turns silver-blue. Those nights are good for prophecies, bad for hidden crimes: the geese remember what was done under the light.
