Looks as If the Rest of the Castle got portaled away
gasoliogassososays
The most famous legend inherent in the Castle of Roccascalegna features Corvo de Corvis and the edict of the "Jus Primae Noctis". It seems that in 1646 the elusive Baron reintroduced this medieval practice, by virtue of which every new bride of the Roccascalegna Feud passed from the wedding night with him instead of with her husband. It is not clear whether a new bride, or whether her husband, disguised as a bride, stabbed the Baron in the wedding bed and he, dying, left his own imprint of the bloody hand on a rock of the tower, which then collapsed in the 1940. Although he tried to wash the blood from the rock, it continued to resurface and there are still elderly people who claim to have seen the "hand of blood" even after the collapse.
