Tavern Sawdust

Fine wood shavings and grit cover the tavern floor, stale and trodden into the planks by boots. Scuffed from generations of villagers and Lords' enforcers moving through the space, the sawdust piles unevenly near the hearth where meager meals are served. Its presence softens footsteps and muffles some of the tavern's harsher sounds, offering a dissonant comfort amidst the brutality unfolding around Ivo’s table.

Ivo, Habris, and the villagers tread upon it as they navigate the oppressive atmosphere.
