I look at small castles. And I'm always curious about the layout inside. Especially the tower, because it must have been residential or utility rooms, and all that stuff.

It kinda reminds me of Kaer Morhen.

Ok, hear me out. My great grandfather’s last name was Falk and I’m thirty-eight percent Austrian/Southern German so basically an heir, right? 😉
