History
Castle Gansdy was a nearby home of the House of Gansdia, a Lochian noble house loyal to House Egalasinth, which established the stone palace in the Glintland wetlands in order to monitor and somewhat prevent Morian elves from the Leisbriels and Candor Mountains from joining forces and challenging Lochian rule. In recent years, several elf navigators and seafarers have come from this house as its seaside location and lack of naval traffic congestion inspired seafaring from the typically-land-based elves.
Architecture
Warm-colored stone of sandstone, plater walls, bricks, and ruddy, handsome roof tiles adorning circular halls, towers, and spires, with arch-shaped windows, some large, and gilded with simple crossbeams on seaglass.
Geography
Calm water, wetland background and surroundings, with forested mountains visible in the distance to the north and south.
