Chateau Haine, previously known as Fortress Haine, is the current vacation villa of Duke Prosper de Montfort.

Background[]

Chateau Haine is located in the Free Marches on the western slopes of the Vimmark Mountains.

Chateau Haine began as a fortress, first constructed by order of Lord Norbert de la Haine in 4:90 Black.[1] Lord de la Haine tried to seize power in the Free Marches and was sentenced to be executed. He fled to Fortress Haine, pursued by his enemies. The siege ground on for one hundred days before the besiegers hired the services of the Antivan Crows. The Crows managed to gain entry to the fortress and slit the lord's throat while he slept.[2] The castle sat empty for thirty years before being used as a stronghold by the Grey Wardens during the Fourth Blight in 5:20-5:21 Exalted. Under the leadership of the Warden mage Isseya, Garahel's younger sister, caves and an artificial lake were constructed underneath the mountain to house thousands of refugees from nearby Marcher cities. After the Blight, Fortress Haine was granted to Ser Gaston de Montfont, a chevalier who distinguished himself by leading the cavalry at the Battle of Ayesleigh.[2][3]

The abundance of wild wyvern in the area led to the Montforts sponsoring seasonal hunting parties to reduce their population, but eventually became a sporting event.

In a diplomatic gesture to his local guests, Duke Prosper has equipped his chevaliers stationed at the Chateau with Kirkwall Shields to add a more local touch.

Trivia[]

  • Lord Norbert de la Haine had a singular fondness for eating pickled lampreys. This species does not seem to taste very good to most, and as a result is only rarely found in cuisine.[4]
