Castle Island is a pocket domain[1] that is home to a twisted sirine known only as the Lady of the Lake.. She pursued a vendetta with the castle's original master on the prime material plane after the latter had erroneously slain her husband, who had been transformed into a monster called the Avanc. The Lady of the Lake sacrificed her own offspring to achieve a revenge which has ultimately been denied to her. An Avanc still roams the black water of Lake Kronov, but it is not the one she loved.
This pocket domain is located within Tepest, in Lake Kronov[1], and draws some inspiration from The Lady of the Lake of Arthurian legend.
Castle Island clocks in at a rank 2 sinkhole of evil most of the time, but can rise when the Lady of the Lake has victims to torture.[2]
