11 The Old Camp Castle is the fortified centre of the Old Camp. It was built inside the ruins of an older fortification in the middle of the Valley of Mines and is the hub for the camp's leadership, combat forces, and mages. Alkimia Interactive showcased the castle in a 2023 trailer titled "Welcome to the Old Camp," which included a new rendition of the original 2001 theme by Kai Rosenkranz.
