The Tooth and Hookah is a modest inn in the city of Wati.  While it is a fine establishment located in the Midwife district, it lacks the name recognition of the Whispering Stone.  Because of this it is usually a quiet place where a traveler looking for some peace can find a cool drink, a pipe, and the company of the inn's mascot: Toothy the crocodile.  Toothy tends to spend the hottest hours of the day in the inn's well, coming out in the cooler evening to dine on the scraps thrown to him by the proprietor and patrons.  In the hotter evenings, he simply rests upon the rim of the well, keeping an eye over the main hall.  The proprietor of the establishment is a Garundi man by the name of Farhaan.  He's a retired adventurer with plenty of scars said to have built the inn off his reward for hunting and slaying a powerful necromancer many years ago.  With the announcement of the opening of the Necropolis though, even this quiet sanctum is filled to capacity with adventurers looking to find their fortunes, "The Company of the New Dawn" counted among them. 
     The inn is three floors.  The first floor is dominated by the main room filled with low set tables and cushions to sit on.  Hookahs rise from the middle of each of the tables and patrons can be supplied with tobacco complimentary to a fine meal or a night in the inn.  The inn's infamous well sits next to the end of the bar along the back of the main room, giving Toothy a prominent position, especially for those that look to sit at the stools and get a drink.  The two upper floors are for those staying the night in the inn and have a similar layout to each other.  Each has seven rooms with four of them arranged around a small common area with another same low set table with hookah and cushions for those looking for a more quiet place to retire in the evenings.  The third floor common area has an open skylight, that can be covered in the daytime with a canvas roof but opened up at night to allow the cool desert wind to provide a breath of fresh air to those staying in the inn.
