Record of Lodoss War Wiki

Kastuul (カストゥール, Kasuto~ūru) was an ancient kingdom of sorcery. 500 years before the main events of The Grey Witch, the sorcerers of Lodoss had brought honour and glory to the ancient kingdom of Kastuul. Using powerful sorcery, they mastered the spirit world and even made servants of the dragons. However, in their quest to master ever more powerful forms of magic a group of sorcerers attempted a grand experiment, but it failed miserably. Their magic was sealed away and their holy land was destroyed. With their magic powers gone, the people of Kastuul were easy prey for the barbarian tribes, who began an uprising. In the process the last governor of Kastuul, Saluvan, was killed.[1]

Before his demise, governor Saluvan ordered the dragons to fly to secret hideouts of Lodoss to guard the most precious treasures of Kastuul, that have since become known as the Governor’s Treasures. Saluvan hoped that one day the power of his kingdom would be revived and had the dragons guard his treasures to make sure their magical powers would never be lost.[1]

Five hundred years later Lodoss knows few survivors of the Fall of Kastuul, one being Karla, the Grey Witch, who sealed herself away in a circlet. The other is Strall, who survived via the Forest of No Return. Some Kastuulians also managed to make their way to the lands of Crystania and survive there for some time.
