Memory Is Missing 2
This castle stood as a grim sentinel in the Highlands, a fortress of stone and iron imposed upon conquered lands.
Once an ancient, sacred stronghold of the Highlanders, it had been transformed into a Vandorian outpost after Manu's forces took control. The high, vaulted ceilings were lit by cold torchlight, casting jagged shadows against the tapestries that adorned the walls.
Each tapestry was a scene of Vandorian conquest: soldiers in dark armor stood triumphant over fallen Highlanders, their banners hoisted high, marked by the six-winged white serpent.
In one mural, a Highland chieftain knelt, hands bound, his face twisted with anguish while Vandorian soldiers loomed around him, smirking as they raised their blades. Another tapestry depicted the lush lands of the Highlands set ablaze, with the once-colorful skies darkened by thick smoke. It was a brutal homage to Vandorian might, each stitch a reminder of the pain inflicted on these lands.
