Castle Zvahl Keep

Description

The central keep of the ancient ruins in Xarcabard where the Shadow Lord gathered his Beastmen army a little more than 20 years ago. The Allied Forces of Altana defeated the Beastman Horde in Xarcabard at the end of the Crystal Wars, but rumors of the Shadow Lord's rebirth persist.
