Castle Barataria

Castle Barataria is a castle was located on the mysterious Planet X in the year 2112 A.D. It appears to exist within the alternate time line created by  Minax's interventions during Ultima II.

Description
Castle Barataria, also called "Ozy's Place" was the stronghold of King Ozymandias, who presumably ruled over the denizens of Planet X. A Queen Susan dwelt within the castle's chambers, although the extent of her political power was unclear, as was her exact relation to the lord of the palace. Ozymandias, like Lord British, proved willing to grant the Stranger the use of the healing arts in exchange for tributes of gold.

The castle contained a kitchen, jail and chambers for both the lord and lady of the domain, although a large portion of its architecture was dedicated to a large open courtyard in which the name of Ozymandias was engraved in segments across five fountains. Its entire east wing was an elaborate winding labyrinth, constructed for purposes unknown.

It was within the chapel of Barataria that the much sought after Father Antos could be found, although belligerent guards barred easy access to the mystic. Once approached, the sage willingly gave his blessing to the Stranger, who had needed to seek it out that the old man of the  Oracles' prophecy might at last give the hero the Force Field Ring necessary to besiege Minax's stronghold of Shadowguard.

After the Time Doors closed and the ahistorical timeline became inaccessible, any other information about it is unknown. Anyway, Father Antos later appeared in Britannia, this time giving the Stranger, now an aspirant Avatar, knowledge of the Book of Truth.

Trivia

 * Barataria is the imaginary kingdom awarded to Sancho Panza in Miguel de Cervantes classic work, Don Quixote. Another castle, within the Lands of the Feudal Lords in Ultima I, also bears this name.
 * Ozymandias is a transliteration into Greek of the throne-name of Ramesses II of Egypt. It is most famously employed in the  Percy Bysshe Shelley poem of the same name, which speaks of the transience of power. The  Pillar of Ozymandias, which bore lines from this classic work, was featured in Ultima I.
