The Guards' Headquarters
   This once-flourishing headquarters of the Castle Guards has since
been emptied out of the living, having been replaced with the dark
evil of Count Strahd Von Zarovich.  Various weapon racks still hold
long halberds.  Seemingly dozens of scimitars rest on nails on the
wall, covered in small sheets of spiderwebs.  These headquarters of
the castle guard once served as both a dormitory and a checkpoint
for the former protectors of Castle Ravenloft.
