Three Pearls Nightclub
The Pearls is a popular evening destination for Waterdhavians, offering stand-up comedians, trained animal acts, illusionists, exotic dancing, and recitals by popular bards and orators.
Its name comes from its purchase price; when the owner of the tavern that stood in his place sourly declared he would sell the place to anyone who'd give him the price of a meal, one of his own dancers stopped on stage, tore off three black pearls—nearly all she was wearing—and threw them to him, claiming the place as her own. The dancer, Halidara Urinshoon, is seldom on stage these days and spends her time in North Ward while her riches pile up.
Almost every evening, crowds stream up Pearl Alley to the Three Pearls, except on nights when a guild or other large group rents it for a meeting or for private entertainment. The Pearls offers finger foods but makes a killing on the sheer volume and variety of drinks it has on hand.
