Spent the last few days exploring around Castle Never.  Learned from the graybeards and skilly women of the area that the perfectly preserved, but empty Castle Never predates the city of Neverwinter.  It was here and empty when the first settlers made their homes along the eternally warm river and deep bay filled with fish and crustaceans.  Both the castle and the graveyard called Neverdeath, were the  work of the original inhabitants, the Khlor and the Kargat.  Not sure who they were, but I'd bet they were tribes of humans among the A'Slaani Empire, but local legend says the Khlor were gold-skinned and the Kargat were purple-skinned.

Local lore about Castle Never says that anyone who is in the castle after dark is never seen or heard from again.  This includes the Crypts of the Water Clock Guild hidden beneath the castle itself.

A green-skinned elf lurks around the grounds of Castle Never.  He apparently has access to some cellar on the grounds and lives sown there.  That cellar must not be connected to the castle and its curse or magical effect, since he comes and goes at all hours of the night or day.  The locals say the elf's name is Chartilifax, but I could never get close enough to speak to him.
