Verse:Chlouvānem Inquisition: Difference between revisions

Line 600:

Game halls (''fildelkeikai'') are typical Chlouvānem establishments, somewhat reminescent of [[w:Western Saloon|western saloons]], where people can drink - usually abundant quantities of rice wine or ''gilvāh'', a rhum-like spirit - but most importantly they may play some rather informal games of chance, notably card games but also very spartane versions of bowling or knife throwing. In the past, game halls had a reputation of being violent places, but it is today no longer the case in most places.

Dance gardens (''mūmikkeikai'') are the Chlouvānem equivalents of nightclubs, though most usually with Chlouvānem traditional music rather than more modern styles (which, in the Inquisition, still draw heavily from traditional popular music styles such as ''laneika'', a type [[w:Qawwali|qawwali]]-like music that more often than not tops the charts).

Music houses (''nakṣulkitai'') are conceptually the same as dance gardens, but the music played there is of styles that, according to Chlouvānem tradition, have more to be carefully listened rather than danced to. This includes Chlouvānem classical music - which is not as elitary as one might think. Obviously, better known artists typically perform in city squares, concert halls, theaters or even temples rather than in the quite small music houses.
