'''Ballymoral''' is a castle-town in {{DQ4}}, which [[Torneko Taloon]] first visits it in {{DQ4 Chapter 3}}.
 
The castle is located between [[Lakanaba]] and [[Endor]], and has recently fallen on hard times. The King's ambitions have the citizens worried that they are on the eve of a war they do not want.
 
==Appearances==
==={{DQ4}}===
Upon arrival, {{Torneko}} discovers that the bridge to [[Endor]] is out and that the [[Archie O'Tect|architect]] commissioned to fix the bridge hasn't arrived yet. After a brief encounter with some facetious foxes in [[Shinnock]] village, {{Torneko}} delivers the builder and the bridge is repaired. King Shamus is overjoyed, having desired to invade the more prosperous nation for some time now. {{Torneko}} is taken aside by Prince [[Regan]], who states that he cannot allow his father's mad ambitions to come to fruition and requests that the [[Torneko Taloon|merchant]] deliver a [[Prince's Letter|warning]] of the invasion to his lover, Princess {{Veronica 4}} of [[Endor]].
 
{{Torneko}} obliges and travels to Endor and presents the warning to King. Hit with the double-whammy of learning that his only daughter is in a long-distance relationship and that his nation is about to be invaded, the King thinks quickly and proposes to settle the matter with a royal marriage--a classic political ploy used by monarchs. He writes up the proposition in a [[Royal Missive|Royal Scroll]] and has {{Torneko}} deliver it back to King Shamus. King Shamus is dissuaded when he finds out his son wishes to marry the Princess of Endor. Realizing that he can use this position to his advantage with much less danger than with overt force, he decides to act on his ambitions more subtly, and war is averted. [[Regan]] and {{Veronica 4}} hail {{Torneko}} as a hero, and the King of Endor gives him official permission to open his own shop within his kingdom's walls.
 
The [[armour shop]] is out of business in {{DQ4 Chapter 3}}, due to lack of armour, which an old man in the castle will buy off {{Torneko}} for a significant mark up. The shop is opened by {{DQ4 Chapter 5}} due to receiving supplies from [[Endor]].
