The lighthouse Greyhaven south of Trinsic at the Cape of Heroes was responsible for ensuring the safe passage of ships through these dangerous waters.

Description[edit]

The lighthouse was run by the lighthousekeeper David – who lived there together with his family – and it guided many sailors to safety over the years. The Avatar visited the lighthouse in Ultima V, to get the sextant from David, and to learn the song "Stones" from Kenneth, the court musician who then resided there.

When the Underworld started to collapse, the resulting earthquakes completely destroyed the tall structure. The final lighthousekeeper of Greyhaven was Kulebra, whose son Koranada moved to Serpent's Hold after the lighthouse's destruction to eventually lead the Order of the Silver Serpent.

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. The folk who dwell in Greyhaven are strict followers of Blackthorn’s rule, though they have a visitor who possesses much regard for the old ways. Greyhaven lies off the southern tip of the Britannian mainland, north and west of Serpent's Hold.
