Crime Lord's Bath House (2020)

Publisher's blurb:

Grimy cobblestone backstreets lead to the old bathhouse, it’s sheer stone walls only opening high above where small windows slits let in but the smallest rays of light.

It’s foyer is bare for but a table where one pays their fee and a couple of crates, the towels given also seem to be well used at best.

The public bath area however is tiled with beautiful mosaic patterns and even more beautiful scantily clad women giving attention to the bath’s criminal patrons. Further in you find a sauna with wooden benches, and fire pit warmed with rocks however steam obscures much of the room.

The Crime Lord’s quarters hold a large wooden table of fine quality, copious amounts of ale and four locked chests. The back of the building are where the private baths are located, once again containing mosaics and floor murals as well as the back entrance leading out to winding streets and a set of stairs leading down to the fires that warm the baths.
