King's Passage[]

The King's Passage is an adjoining area of Drangleic Castle. When the undead curse started to become uncontrollable, King Vendrick fled through this passage and never returned. At one time, it served as a trial for aspiring heroes, now it holds only death as the Looking Glass Knight is tasked with destroying all who attempt to gain passage.

Throne of Want[]

The Throne of Want is an area separated from Drangleic Castle by a King's Gate. It houses the true throne of Drangleic, and all those who gain the right to sit upon it know true power.
