I have envisioned the lands of the Neck to be something akin to the USA Louisiana bayou. I had not heard of crannogs before reading this story. I did a bit of googling and discovered that the Scots have done some archeological digs and found houses built on stilts: http://www.crannog.co.uk/ When trying to figure out how Greywater Watch moves I came upon the idea of houseboats. Scoff if you want. For me it was quite interesting that people actually built and lived upon multi-level flat bottom boats in areas of the US.

The Fattest Leech Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 I think the visuals in this video show how it always happened in my noggin'. Nothing is as it seems. Should be at the 2:40 mark to see the "castle". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRANDON GREYSTARK Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 The Greywater Watch may be a massive house boat or , a hill fort build on large islands in the middle of the swamp .Flooding and droughts that cause water levels to change old paths and channels vanish while new ones appear , to the invaders it would have the appearance of floating houses .

I was tossing out ideas and what I discovered. You may be correct --- if Greywater Watch is stationary, why can’t ravens find it? Invaders are a different ball of wax. Try marching your heavily armed knights and their horses through a swamp or bog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
