Layout

The Great Keep is a massive building which dominates the largest islet of Pyke. A wide stone bridge connects it to the clifftop gatehouse on the mainland, and other bridges lead to the Kitchen Keep and the Bloody Keep on their own islands.[1]

The Great Hall is long and smoky.[3] The Seastone Chair is located on a dais in the hall.[3]
