The Gryphon Inn
Details
This is a sturdy 2 story dwarven built Inn nestled on the back wall of Fort Gryphon itself. Inside the Inn is warm and cosy with a well frequented taproom that has plenty of tables for big and small cutomers as well as a few booths around the walls for larger parties of travellers. The rooms upstairs are all welcoming and comfortable. The meals are made by dwraven cooks who know the value of good hearty food and the ales are brewed on site.

History
Started in WInter 807 by the Henrikson brothers with aid from their lovely sisters.
Building of The Gryphon Inn
The Inn is complete and the fort has been rebuilt and reinforced where necessary.
Spring 815
The extra accommodation building is finished in time for the coming Spring season. The building adds another 30 rooms to the Inn and 3 large common rooms that will accommodate 6 people at a time.
Autumn 815
The family have started work on another 3 story accommodation building alongside the Inn to provide more space for travelers as the traffic in the area increases. Also a large cellar has been built under the building to add storage for the Inn.
Summer 809
The 2nd floor of the Inn is completed and marks the end of the building for the family who have all pitched in over the past several seasons. A celebration is held on the 30th of Seedtime and is touted as the 'Day of Completion' and will be held each year thereafter.
Nearby land has been cleared and planted with new trees and plants for the future.
Travelers are much more frequent now that this establishment has lessened the arduous nature of the trek between Brastor and Novadom.
Winter 808
The 1st floor is completed along with a large warm dormitory area for discerning frugal travellers by season end.
Travelers may now sleep and eat throughout the Inn and the meals are much better according to repeat travelers through the pass.
Autumn 808
Work on the 1st floor of the Inn has started with the Upper Common room, central area and Staff rooms completed by season end.
Travelers are now able to sleep in the Inn itself on the ground floor level in the common rooms and the meals from the kitchen are becoming more favorably received than previously.
Summer 808
Work on the ground floor of the Inn has continued with the Public Common Room, Staff rooms (rear) and the courtyard walls completed by season end.
A nearby stream has been dammed thereby flooding a small area that had been prepared for the water and thus a small highland lake (covering a 20 acre area) has been formed and some fish have been introduced to the new waters called Lake Mavoinic.
Travelers are still lodged in fixed up areas of the fort but the food is made in the new Inn's Kitchen area and served in the Dining rooms.
Spring 807
Work on the ground floor of the Inn has started with the Kitchen, Dining room and entrance area being completed by season end.
Work has begun on clearing an area nearby for the formation of a highland lake. Rocks have been moved and strategically placed and extra fill moved from various sites to form banks and the like.
Travelers passing through are lodged in parts of the fort where the brothers have fixed damage and made habitable, while the food is served communally in an old barracks area.
Winter 807
The brothers have started work on the new Inn they are building inside the walls of the fort and they have completed digging out the cellar area by the end of Winter 807
