Discover Castle Kousha: A Fantasy Realm Awaits

Castle Kousha emerges from the treetops as you crest yet another forested hill, like a mon ster hiding in the brush, waiting to strike. You cannot be sure if its crookedness was a feature of its design from its inception or if its ruin has made its current shape this torturous. If one could use “malnourished” to describe a struc ture, this castle would look malnourished. Its circular base, perched on the small hill at the bottom of the valley, feels too thin to support its massive towers. They rise like grasping, bony fingers, bending at odd angles on their way up. Even from here, you can immediately tell which is the western tower: It’s the only one whose windows are lit up. Pinpricks of pinkish light shine from within the tower in striking contrast to the blue-tinted mist that drowns the valley. You must be a mile away from the castle, but even at this distance you can hear the edges of a waltz drifting through the eerily silent forest
