"This is the Fiddler's Scarlet – a raucous inn run for and by the Guild of Gondoliers. Here, the delicacies of smugglers are available for all. Starshine from Hell's vaults, Marigold wine, fresh from the vine, ciders blended from forbidden fruits."[1]

The Fiddler's Scarlet is an inn in the Hinterlands frequented by the Guild of Gondoliers.[2] Its patrons predominantly include guildmembers who have come to rest and relax, as well as mysterious, cloaked smugglers. These traders are paid in souls for illegal beverages, including starshine and forbidden wines.[3][4] According to a document from the Waswood, the Fiddler's Scarlet forbids all mirrors and glass, and only permits chipped, pewter cups.[5]
