Understand the Terrain Layout

The castle sits atop a snowy peak with steep slopes on multiple sides. The main pathways connect the castle gates to the coal mine and village areas. Edges drop off sharply, creating fall hazards. Move carefully along established routes and avoid wandering near cliff edges, especially at night or during reduced visibility.

Safe Travel Routes

  • Use the main pathways between buildings—these are intentionally flattened and safe
  • Follow the castle walls as natural guides when moving around the fortress
  • Descend toward the coal mine via the designated approach rather than cutting across open slopes
  • Stay on the village roads connecting houses within the walls

Prevent Accidental Falls

Wear armor to reduce fall damage. Consider building temporary barriers or railings along edges you frequently traverse. Snow blocks can be placed quickly as safety measures. If you do fall, water at the base of slopes can break your fall and prevent death. Always look down before moving forward on steep terrain.
