The Fire and Spice is a dim, smoky establishment in the city of Ashtan. Dagon, the barkeep, mixes up a selection of drinks behind the bar as well as serves the selection of the day as prepared by Chef Cornelios. For those who desire a bit of entertainment with their meal, Naodia, a firedancer, is always ready to perform for paying customers. For a cocktail or three before dinner, try Dagon's drink menu.
