Seems unusual that the Inn and its basement are bone dry. It seems to me that at least the lowest point would have some water if not completely underwater.
For those who dont know what the Inn is its other know as the tavern. Happy gaming =D and good luck

What to do
Description
I was once First Mate on the Wave Mistress, ship-of-the-line in the Kul Tiras Third Fleet. The Doomed Fleet. Doomed, for on its last voyage the fleet was attacked by red dragons. Dragons controlled by orcs! We didn't stand a chance against that dragonfire...and our fleet was burned and sunk off this here coast. I'm the sole survivor of those poor vessels... ...Bring me my mead, {class}. It's down in the cellar of the inn. As far away as I put it from me, I can't go without it in the end.
