	There is a heated stone bath in the basement of the tavern that is available for guests to use who have booked rooms for the night. The bath is built directly into the ground and paved with dark grey stone, large enough to comfortably fit up to eight humanoids. The water is warmed by natural geothermal vents beneath the building; a quirk of Aerilon's mountain geology that the original builder was wise enough to build over.

	The available rooms are on the second floor, accessed by a sturdy wooden staircase beside the bar. They're modest but ~~very~~ comfortable, including a wool blanket and feather pillows, the luxuries one might miss while on the road, and lit up by smaller versions of the namesake lanterns outside the establishment. Standard rooms are private and include single or double beds with a writing desk and chair by a large window with shutters and a view of the street or the distant mountain range. Shared rooms are cheaper, a large room with a bed in each of the four corners with heavy canvas privacy curtains on iron rings that can be drawn around each bed and a lockbox for valuables.

	This tavern and inn is a large, two story building constructed from natural stone with dark wooden shutters on every window. Its most distinctive feature is the roof, which extends well past the walls of the building, creating a deep overhang that shelters the building from Fairhaven's weather. From each corner of this extended roof hang large, ornate metal lanterns that are always lit and can be seen from several streets away. A large covered porch wraps around the front with some seating for patrons, including a few rocking chairs where there may be a few locals drinking and talking peacefully.

	Inside the building is built for versatility and comfort, there's multiple seating areas including some booths along one wall, communal tables and bar stools, with a chandelier hanging from the ceiling and a stone hearth in one corner surrounded by lounges. One wall is almost exclusively glass cases full of curiosities and collected items from across the continent and potentially beyond, you can quickly recognise a unicorn horn ~~and~~ the enormous claw of a boneclaw. The atmosphere is quiet and relaxing, the lighting is warm and the food is filling; there is a general understanding that the Lantern is a place to unwind.
