Dragon Hall Tavern welcomes all weary travelers and locals from across Farhaven. On this night, however, the conversation may take a dark turn. Lately, there has been unrest in Farhaven and across the Stern Isles. Crime is running rampant in the city and merchant ships are being attacked on the open sea. Magic users have always been distrusted by the crown, but now an ancient family could threaten the Crown Prince Demetrius Harcourt's claim to the throne. With talk of a royal overseas mission to seek out this family, who were the protectors of the realm's dragons for centuries, there has been an air of uneasiness and whispers of war. Tonight, attempt to leave these worries behind as you head to Dragon heart Tavern...
“ just be wary of who you trust.”

Site Description:  Mauna Kea Recreation Area is situated approximately 6,500 feet above sea level and generally experiences cool, dry and breezy conditions. On days with sparse or no cloud cover, persons should protect themselves from sun exposure. High winds and heavy
rains, though atypical, are possibilities that should be prepared for. Nighttime temperatures during winter months may drop below 30 degrees Fahrenheit (-1 degrees Celsius), so it is recommended to dress in layers. (Here is your opportunity to dress in warmer garb) The weather should be pretty nice in May!

Cabin camping: Camping facilities at Mauna Kea include five regular cabins with room for six people (2 wheelchair accessible cabins) and two bunkhouses with room for 24 people. Cabins and Bunkhouse both have kitchen, bathroom and Living//Dining area If interested in camping please contact the Event Stuarts for more information (We might have a couple spots left in our
cabin which will make get even cheaper, Price is split 6 ways) or if you want to rent your own cabin type in the link below.
