Editing Tantegel

[[Image:Tantegal.PNG|right|thumb|Tantegel Castle in the GBC version of ''[[Dragon Warrior II]]''.]]

'''Tantegel''' (ラダトーム, ''Radatōmu'', ''Ladutorm'') is a castle and nearby town which serve as the capital of [[Alefgard]]. It is featured in the first three ''Dragon Quest'' games: ''[[Dragon Quest]]'', ''[[Dragon Quest II]]'', and ''[[Dragon Quest III]]'', as part of the [[Erdrick Trilogy]]. Tantegel is the starting and central location in the original ''Dragon Quest''. It is the only location in Alefgard which has a castle and a reigning king.

In the original Famicom release of ''Dragon Quest'', the town surrounding the Ladutorm Castle (ラダトーム城, ''Radatōmu Shiro'')is called the same name as the castle, Ladutorm Town (ラダトームの町, ''Radatōmu no Machi''). When the game was localized and released overseas it was decided to give the castle and town different names ('''Tantegel''' and '''Brecconary''' respectively). In all other English version releases both town and castle are referred to as Tantegel, and combined into one icon on the world map.

===Dragon Quest===

Tantegel is a location of central importance in ''Dragon Quest'' for many reasons.

* It is the only castle in Alefgard that has a reigning king.

* It is the location the hero returns to after completing the game.

In ''Dragon Quest II'', Tantegel is much less important. It is not reached until nearly halfway into the game, and the king is hiding out of fear of [[Hargon]]. No major items/information are located there and it can be skipped altogether if desired.

== Trivia ==

* One reason the town may have been given a different name in the NES version, is because the localizers may have thought that it would be odd to call it the same name as its castle, as it is entirely separate from the castle on the world map. However, in ''Dragon Quest II'' and ''III'', Tantegel is composed of both combined locations.
