This ancient stone building is built on a low hillock, said to be a burial mound for steeds of horsemen slain by The Errant, a champion of Tempus. Many pilgrims headed for his shrine spend a night here, not that many continue their journey. The proprietor, Bethe of Horse Hill (human female barbarian lvl 3), makes a nice little side business of enslaving lone travelers and selling them to vaegould tribesmen. Two of the rooms have trapped floors that can be collapsed into pits below the hill (treat as pit trap with 20 ft drop). With little on no risk of vaegould raids Bethe keeps a much smaller number of guards than other way stations on the road. She breeds a nasty variety of guard dogs in a dirty kennel yard out back, however.
The slaves who are kept in filthy pens inside the burial mound say that at night they hear moans and scrapings coming from somewhere. Perhaps there is a hidden passage into deeper, forgotten parts of the tomb?
