	The carceris makes a peculiar rustling sound as she moves, reminiscent of dried up parchment. ~~Ragged~~ robes lift and swirl about her like animated tendrils, and bare bones protrude from similar tatters of skin hanging from her hands and hollow cheeks. The specter bares yellowed teeth, the roots discolored a deep brown where they are anchored in the visible jawbones. As she circles, constantly whispering a litany of magic, gooey pools of darkness which were once the horror's eyes weep rivulets of stain down the remnants of her face.		<pre{{log2\|margin-right=26em}}>The carceris makes a peculiar rustling sound as she moves, reminiscent of dried up parchment.

	Castle Anwyn was where [[Terate]] grew up as a prince, was driven mad with a [[Vvrael]] related scroll, and was one of the places where a Stone of Virtue was discovered. It has many examples of writhing serpent imagery within it, and is located on an island in foggy [[Lough Ne'halin]], which translates roughly as [[Mount Aenatumgana\|"lake without salt."]] The motivation for the use of a word meaning "of the prison" and "of the prisoner" is likely using the subtle word play regarding the etymology of the keep and dungeon, where the whole site is apparently based on [[Castle Anwyn#Behind the Scenes\|St. Patrick's Purgatory]] in Lough Derg, with a cave underneath what is called the Prison Chapel. This was connected to the Chapel Perilous in the work of Jessie Weston, which is represented by chapel and crypt of the castle. There is also a version where Gawain is the knight who harrows Purgatory with Merlin and Arthur, whereas usually the descent into purgatory is associated with the knight [[Olbin Pass#Behind the Scenes\|Owain]]. In the year after the Vvrael saga ended there was a situation where the scroll was found causing its reader Norandar to [[Spotted leaper#Behind the Scenes\|physically transform]], and the queen unleashed demons on adventurers. They were intervened upon by [[Onar]], who was the kingdom's patron deity.
