History¶
Originally constructed by King Aldric of Lachsenhausen as a private residence and industrial site. After Aldric's death in 1251 it became the private holding of Leopold von Lachsenhausen and Victor von Lachsenhausen. The Avari used it as a meeting location during the empire's later years.
1361: Severin Falkenrath poisoned Leopold von Lachsenhausen and Victor von Lachsenhausen with wine here during what was presented as a strategy meeting. He held them as they died to ensure their shares of the Curse of Ravana transferred to him directly rather than dispersing. Their bodies were thrown from the cliffs and remain buried at the base. The murders triggered the villager revolt of 1362.
Notes¶
The year of construction is undocumented. What industrial operations were run here under King Aldric of Lachsenhausen?
