PILGRIM'S KEEP

[Distance from Isla Empieza]: 5 weeks.

[Terrain]: Desolate and rocky with almost unscaleable mountains. There are paths carved into the mountains, though.

[Weather]: Cold with harsh winds. The island is protected by a storm of ice and snow that will dash unwelcome visitors on the rocks.

[Is the island inhabited?]: Only by the Cat o' Nine Tails.

[If so, what is the culture like here?]: Cat lives alone in a large, abandoned keep hidden within the mountains.

[Island peculiarities]: To gain access to the island, one must approach the small outcropping of rocks marked by a banner. A quartz slab is there, erected like an altar. Anyone seeking entry must put a few drops of blood on the quartz. Those who do will be able to pass through the snow and ice unharmed and will be led to Cat's keep by will o' the wisps, small fairy lights that lead through the mountains. Anyone who survives the storm and gets through uninvited won't have those lights to guide them and may end up wandering the labyrinth until they starve to death.
