Trodain is the home to [[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|The Hero]], [[Trode|King Trode]], and [[Princess Medea]] with the former serving as a low-ranking guard. The kingdom was prosperous before its fall, maintaining good relations with the other lands and especially so with the kingdom of [[Argonia]] in the southwest. The royal family's lineage stretched back centuries, being tasked by a great sage to guard a foreboding scepter against those who would exploit it. This stewardship was broken when the failed magician Dhoulmagus infiltrated the castle as a travelling jester meaning to entertain the sovereignty. | |||

Transforming the king and princess into a monster and mare respectively to test out its power, the madman then unleashed the full force of the staff in the center of the castle. This sent writhing tendrils of thorny vines coursing through the building, turning anything inside into a hideous plant-hybrid that was hence frozen in time. Trode and Medea were spared due to standing within the magic circle as the curse took hold, and the lone survivor beyond them was but a lowly guard mysteriously spared. The trio would set out to avenge themselves and undo the curse at any cost. | ||

This leads the group to the dwelling of [[Ishmahri]] through a shadow cast upon the castle library floor. When the great evil behind Dhoulmagus is slain, the curse upon the castle and its people is finally undone, with the citizens running out to celebrate their heroes. | ||

Castle Trodain is the final area available in the | Castle Trodain is the final area available in the altar of the cursed king in the [[Echo Chamber]]. The Luminary and his party arrive just after the king and his entourage have left for the moonshadow lands, and are spoken to by Ishmahri through a disembodied voice. The mysterious being explains that the travellers to his world have become trapped due to the actions of a monster--the sun has been fixed high in the sky for days on end and something must be done. The monster, [[Dayle]], is lurking in the former scepter room and has been casting [[Tick-Tock]] every evening to keep the perpetual day going. After a quick trouncing, night returns to Trodain and Ishmahri expresses his gratitude to the party with a [[Shamshir of light]]. | ||
