 A Grand Dealing of Cards

 (Year Ninety of The Second Age)

“The Hiram King. Come in broke, and leave rich as royalty!“

[!] An artist’s rendition of an intense game of Four Horsemen at play.

To the Citizens of Celia’nor and all wayfarers, commonfolk, and those too rich to care,

 

Congratulations! You are cordially invited to the grand opening of The Hiram King casino! 

—

Masterminded by the mysterious gentleman, Roland LeGrand, The Hiram King’s doors open for anyone who wishes to have a luxurious time. Located in the heart of Celia’nor, play your heart out or eat away the sorrows from a bad hand. And after you’ve had your fill of spirits, why not join us for another game or two? The Hiram King and its staff are well equipped for a multitude of games, most of which are well known, or engineered by Roland LeGrand himself. At current, the casino sports a dice table, a roulette wheel, and a card table, all made specifically to fit the player’s niche. 

If low stakes aren’t your thing, perhaps take a gander at our VIP section. With refreshments on tap, a moody atmosphere, and cards dealt directly by the Grandmaster of Games himself, one could never ask for a better way to make some money.

Should you find yourself at the High Stakes table, your luck and card playing ability will be challenged in a game of Four Horsemen, a game popularized and perfected by Mr. LeGrand. 

And finally, if souvenirs suit your fancy, be sure to stop by our souvenir stand. Stocked with the finest hand crafted playing cards and dice that you could get your hands on, why not take a piece of the King home with you? A reminder to not be a stranger, and to come back when you wish to win big.

For Gambling Addictions, please seek help at the nearest clinic. Or let it ride. Ninety percent of gambling addicts quit right before they hit it big.

“I love the Hiram King!” Declared Adam as he played his tenth losing hand of Four Horsemen, woefully indebted to the establishment. “Nine of ten gamblers quit before they hit big, so I shouldn’t stop now!”

[Naufragium 614]

“I love the Hiram King!” Proclaimed Vincente as he played his eleventh losing hand of Four Horsemen, sorrowfully indebted to the establishment. “Nine out of ten gamblers quit before they hit big, so I shouldn’t stop now!”

“Oh dear- it appears as though the leadership of Celia’nor has betrayed me.” The elfess did lament with a heavy sigh, clicking her tongue and shaking her head.

"I love de Hiram King." Announced Roland LeGrand, as he dealt the twelfth losing hand to each of the players, both of whom were looking rather enraptured by the promise of victory. "Keep dat spirit, mes amis. De win is comin' in time, no?"

"I love...the Hiram King.."

dreared a particularly haggard elder as he was dealt the twelfth losing hand,

head hanging dangerously low to the cards before thudding to the table in slumber a few moments later.
