Buckkeep Castle

Location from The Realm of the Elderlings by Robin Hobb

The Farseer seat of power — a fortress of dark stone rising from sea cliffs, honeycombed with secret passages and haunted by the ghosts of every bastard, assassin, and king who walked its corridors.

Also known as: Buckkeep, The Keep, Buckkeep Town

• The castle's defenses held against the Red Ship raids when many coastal fortifications fell
• Buckkeep town at the base of the cliffs is a thriving port, distinct from the castle above
