Bran Castle
|
 |
Bran Castle is the place of the damned - many a vampire started its existance
there, and rumours go that even Dracula is living there. The Castle is hidden
behind dark woods near Kerofk's side of the Mountain Pass. Gloomy and rotten is
most of it, although still living beings live in and near of it, some of them
even sharing knowledge or trading with travellers - and others, attacking them.
"We were lost in that dark wood near Kerofk..." The young lady looks up,
focuses you, and seems to evaluate your value. "Strange howls were to be heard,
and the surrounding was frightening. Then the clouds cleared, and in front of
the moon, we could see a tower, a castle rising into the sky. As the rain
started, we entered it. Oh, Aragorn help, I wish I never followed my father into
this cursed castle..." The young lady grins at you and you notice her fangs...
On nights with full eclipse, strange howlings and frightening screams can be
heard echoing over the Dark Woods. On nights like those, the gates of Kerofk get
closed, and only opened again when the sun has risen. People say THINGS could
come into Kerofk, others say that those things get what rests in front of the
gates, awaiting the sunrise, and so Kerofk is left in peace.
Don't, listen, don't go to Bran Castle.

note that is it quite a large image (100k) ).
