Connects to 24.13, 25.17, 26.20, 29.14.17 and the Duchy of Thring.
In a high valley at the center of the Witch Clans’ domains, there is a place that they call a ruin but is more accurately the opposite of a ruin - a castle that was only ever half built and then abandoned. Long ago, this place was the seat of power for The Maddlows.
The reason that the castle was never fully built is that each Maddlow suspected the others of inserting secret doors and traps into the design.
Connection
- Gischard Penderghast (24.13) looted Maddlow Castle some time ago and left its walls perilously full of holes.
Hooks
- Any truth to the Maddlows’ fears about traps and secret passages?
