Known for being a quiet respite for those looking to sip tea and read books in a large, plant filled room. Modest, elegant, charming, Tired Quill is a favorite café for conversation in Bardona. Ran by the Heloise Veir household it has tea and food for patrons. The teas are herbal brews meant to alter the drinker's state of mind. Jars of flowers and leaves reading "relaxation", "contemplation", "focus", "trance", and even "meditation" line the walls behind the counter. These are not magic potions but teas said to change mental states in a way similar to aroma therapy. Food at the Tired Quill is simple and light, they serve salad, soups, bread, and sandwiches. Dimitri brews wine and ale in the cellar below, which is also served to those who ask. This is a popular place to eat and well known even among the commoners.
People come sometimes to read her open library of books on plants, natural history, gem stones, and books about Daravin itself. No one is permitted to leave with any of the tomes. People will come to read them like magazines and talk as if in a forum in the common area of her café. Inside is very spectacular with lavish living plants of all kinds. Plants and vines drape from pots above seating areas in the dining room and other taller plants stand proud in pots on the ground. There are palms and succulents lining every window in the café. Curious plants like bromeliad bring life to the green that surrounds people with their fiery orange flowers as well as pink begonias on her serving counter.

At night the whole scene changes. Having part of the underground life of Daravin in your back pocket isn't always easy to maintain. Through careful planning and strict housekeeping she is able to run a sex club in her basement behind a stack of a barrels of old wine. In one of the barrels there is a hinge that opens up into a foyer, with a door at the end. From the other side of the door someone will open a small window and check if you have the requirements to enter. Upon success the doorman will let you in. The main area is down two steps to a pit of pillows, blankets, and seating. There are shelves in here and drapes hang from the walls. Sconces light up the room and down a hallway there are four small rooms for business. No one will let you inside unless you have a mask on and are dressed in finer clothing, baring a red apple with a dagger through it.
Inside there are courtesans and nobles talking, letting loose in their own way. Wine and beer flow freely on these nights. These events happen every Eiroldas and Eikaeus each cycle. The Tired Quill's afterlife isn't known among the common people. Valran are allowed to be courtesan's but they cannot indulge in the services from a buyer. Fake names are used here only. Dimitri acts as doorman and bouncer often. This speakeasy for sex can get loud and rowdy in the common area at times when stifled nobility really let loose.
