Balmung, Lavender Beds Ward 2 Plot 2 (Small)
Balmung, Empyreum Ward 18 Plot 60 (Large)

Alea Iacta Est

Try your luck and have a good time.

The Upper Bar (Small)

The project of the Proprietress, and it shows in style and grace. Drinks and food are absolutely free, the hospitality is the least we can do for you. Built in a Shroud-inspired style, with just some hints of modernity, it is designed for relaxation and enjoyment as the primary function. Open always, but especially during open nights.


The Arena (Small)

Where the die is cast, in more than one sense. The arena serves two functions: A well shielded area for duelists to hone their skills, sometimes compete for prizes, and sometimes compete for honor. A betting counter is also there for dueling nights, with the potential to win or lose coin depending on the outcome of the fights. The Arena also has a lower bar, but do not expect this to always be open.Note: Please check the rules section if you wish to compete OR bet! There are requirements within TOS!

The Northern Location (Large)

Like all greats before us, we are still built upon the backs of giants. What was once the Ambermill, and more before that, is now the second Alea Iacta Est location. The background at present is a show of what awaits you at the larger area. It is like the Viperae Oculus, the smaller location, but more. Bar, restaurant, and arena. With the bonus of a performance hall. This is the common location for openings!
