Location

Coordinates: 3219, 85, 1725

Today, the location is still only a crater, with a single structure at its northern end. This structure holds one evoker named "The Mourner", as well as a tomb dedicated to Hovadchear. This tomb contains the Hovadchear's Greathammer legendary weapon.

Hovadchear's grave bears two signs, which read:

Rest In Peace
Hovadchear Myrik
Companion of Ultva Utofal

Bastion of Truths
Founder of the Order of Insohm

Lore

Castle Hovadchear served as the capital of Insohm from the time that it was founded as the Insohmic Coalition by Hovad and Ultva, up until the castle's mysterious disappearance.1

It is not known what caused the vanishing of the castle, although several potential culprits have been suggested. These include an extremely powerful end-game character, the bizarre monsters seen around the time of Avsohm's demise, and more, but no answers have been found.

  1. Some sources are conflicted on whether Castle Hovadchear or Old Mossfield was the true capital of Insohm. Both locations were central to the Order. ↩
