After the young [[Harry|Prince Harry]] is abducted from Castle Coburg, both [[Pankraz]] and [[Hero (Dragon Quest V)|his son]] track him to these ruins, where the kidnappers were planning to sell him to the [[Order of Zugzwang]]. After freeing him from a cell, Pankraz tried to hold off monsters, telling his son to flee with the prince. Before they could escape they were accosted by [[Bishop Ladja]], who quickly took them out. When Pankraz tried to rescue them, Ladja summoned [[Kon the Knight|Kon]] and [[Slon the Rook|Slon]] to battle him, and Ladja threatened his son with a scythe if he tried to advance.
