Waveguide in Ultima V

The lighthouse Waveguide sits on the small Massar Isle west of Verity Isle.

Description[edit]

Dark rumors had surrounded the lighthouse, which was run by the reclusive Gregory and his strange wife Jacqueline. Rumors of dark experiments and bloodshed persisted, which caused everyone to avoid Waveguide if possible.

However, whether these rumors were true or not, the collapse of the Underworld after Ultima V caused the whole island along with the lighthouse to sink into the sea, taking the secrets of its inhabitants to a wet grave.[Citation needed]

Lore[edit]

Rustic lighthouses were built throughout Britannian waters during the recent years of peace; their bright presence has dramatically lowered the number of ships breaking up on reefs and shoals in dark and storms.
Of these lonely dwellings on the sea there are four, called Fogsbane, Stormcrow, Greyhaven, and Waveguide. And the man and wife who keep Waveguide's light burning are not at all kindly disposed toward strangers. Finally, the inhospitable Waveguide can be found on a tiny atoll just west of Verity Isle, for those who care to visit it.
