Mizuko's Kettle

There are a number of inns and eateries around the town, but Hikaru's place, tucked back between the Tower Clock and the Old Council Offices, offers a quite unique experience. It probably wouldn't have been possible to set up such a venture during the war, as it is dependent on the harbour for its exotic herbs and leaves. Now though it is flourishing and Hikaru has placed tables outside to accommodate the demand.

Many are the patrons who leave with a new found confidence, inspired to try new endeavours and take on those heroic challenges that have previously daunted them.

Gaming Notes

Hikaru is a very accomplished bard and geisha, and has mastered tea ceremonies that inspire her patrons.

Hikaru's tea shop is base of operations for an underground interference movement. From here Hikaru can keep a visual track of the comings and goings at the Town Hall, and the customers are a good source of information. She has also mastered disguise, and though most note her exotic appearance, they are unaware that she is truly Vishkanya. She'd rather be regarded as an enigmatic human from faraway lands than as a serpentine monster not to be trusted. This is of benefit in both of her occupations.

Alongside the mysterious De Lacey, she considers herself the eyes and the ears of New Elysium.
The question is, for whom?
