The Margravine's castle was called simply Moidel's Castle (замок маркграфини назывался просто замок Мойдела) and was raised on an island called Moidel's Mount (и был возведен на острове под названием Гора Мойдел), after the name of the family that had occupied it for centuries (по имени семейства, которое жило на нем веками). It was full of interesting things (замок был полон интересных вещей). There were cabinets of porcelain and ivory figurines (там были залы фарфоровых изделий и статуэток из слоновой кости; cabinet — кабинет; шкаф с выдвижными ящиками; выставочное помещение), rooms filled with curiosities taken at different times from the sea (помещения, заполненные диковинками, собранными в разные времена в море; curiosity — любознательность, любопытство; диковина, редкость), chambers in which arms and armour were displayed (комнаты, в которых оружие и доспехи были выставлены), paintings (crude by Corum's standards) (картины, грубые по меркам Корума) depicting scenes from the history of Lywm-an-Esh (изображавшие сцены из истории Лиум-ан-Эш), as well as scenes taken from the legends and folktales of that land, which was rich in them (а также сцены, взятые из легенд и народных сказок этой страны, которая была богата ими; to be rich — изобиловать, кишеть). Such strange imaginings were rare among the Vadhagh (столь незнакомые грезы = причудливые фантазии были редки среди вадагов), who had been a rational people, and they fascinated Corum (которые были рациональными людьми, и они /фантазии/ заворожили Корума).

And though the darkness in his mind became less noticeable as the pleasant days passed, it still remained. And Corum would sometimes pause in the middle of some action or stop when he witnessed some scene that reminded him of his home, the Castle Erorn.
