"If we're going to kill this thing, we need to understand what it is," Elanor said. "While we walk there, let me tell you a tale, or at least parts of a tale, of a historic man that ruled over man and beast all the same."
In the space occupied today by the mountain range of Mount Dirella, there once stood an oddly shaped castle, forming the heart of the land of Arachnaeos. At the centre stood a standard castle, surrounded by its city. Although oddly shaped, with it's curved walls and excessive towers, it served as a secure location that housed the nobility of the land. The castle was well protected, with a giant wall covering the castle and its surrounding buildings. The oddities with the construction didn't end there. While the castle technically encompassed only the area of the non-existent mountains, an argument could be made to say that the castle stood sentinel over the entirety of the land of Arachnaeos.
