Standing among the trees of the rainwood on Cape Wrath, Mistwood lies in country where sea fog rarely lifts and roads turn to mud for months at a time. The coast is a short distance to the east.
House Mertyns holds it under Storm's End. The castle's isolation within the forest gives its lords a degree of independence, and armies moving through the rainwood need local guides to reach it at all.
