I decided to read and GM it as an ancient abandoned monastery (of an undetermined order) which Gyronna cultists used as a shrine (hence the Gyronna cultists' *graffiti* on the walls of the central tower room) prior to the Stag Lord and his bandits forcing them out . The Gyronna cult would have wanted secrecy and for the site to appear abandoned; a crumbling monastery next to a grave yard was ideal for their purposes. When the Stag Lord and his banditry came along, they scattered the cult, with perhaps only cleric Malgorzata Niska escaping with her life. So a violently dysfunctional patriarchy replaced a matriarchal cult of societal outcasts, and then set about erecting the rampart and towers to reinforce their position.
