Cavhfail

In the alien faerie plane, Cavhfail is one of the more established, if smaller, cities of the Fey. Located northwest of Unseelie castle, Cavhfail is a small but interesting city, and the source of some of the best second-class gear: Electrum armor. The main part of the city is relatively mundane, filled with various shops, guards, and faeries.

The mystery of the city occurs in entering the keep itself, which is a quick but fun password puzzle. Inside the keep, one finds a myriad of sentries, guards, and veterans. Entering using the password leaves you at the stables, south of which is the keep wall (after going south, you can't return north without redoing the password). To the north of the stables is the circle, which is packed with Cavhfail's military men. Westward are the metalsmiths, most of which are protected, with the exception of Xaphen, the legendary maker of the electrum sword.

Cavhfail also holds a set of dungeons, in which are various prisoners and guards. The southern wall of the keep holds a hidden method of escape, but only to those who look carefully along the west side!

• The Mark of Captivity can be obtained in this area.
• Esther McGlodden's son, Grora, has been captured - she would undoubtedly be grateful for his safe return, although your reward would be considerably greater if you used your charming personality.
• Cavhfail has a large amount of hidden rooms - when in doubt, try a direction!
• To gain entry into the keep, try posing as a new recruit around town - it'd be easy to snag a uniform from a lost private, and the shopkeepers would never know the difference...
• It's rumored that the only inn in town has a secret entrance to the keep somewhere upstairs.
• The elder who sits in his room all day long is likely to know, or perhaps guard, an exit from the southern walls.
• Most of the mobs in Cavhfail are red-auras, and some will be aggressive - beware of large forms!
