      This path needs some orientation. You should have sure-footedness. Very adventurous.

          Unfortunately, the ruins are buried under forest and meadows and the only thing you can see there is a grid on the ground, which I only thought should indicate that the castle stood at this point. I find the idea of a castle exciting at this point, but you shouldn't expect too much in advance!
