Castle Avalon is permanent

There were other options I’d explored, other castles I’d looked into to see if they would work, but I kept running into the same problem: a hero’s Noble Phantasm faded once I let go of that hero’s Install. Other castles that could be manifested just by activating them as a Noble Phantasm would disappear as soon as I was done with the Install.

Not this one. This one, I’d built myself using Nimue’s knowledge. Brick by brick, design by design, every little bit by itself, I’d constructed it with her power, with her magic. The woman, part fairy, who was Merlin’s equal in knowledge and talent, had put together this great castle in the span of only a few weekends. Less than six days, total.

When you looked at the size of it, encompassing an area roughly equivalent to the entirety of Downtown, the idea that it could be built in anything less than ten years seemed insane.

I turned back to Lisa and offered her a smile. “Welcome to Castle Avalon.”
