 +After the victory, the leader of the winning clan can choose whether the castle will be the Castle of Light or the Castle of Darkness. Each side has its own advantages and disadvantages, which will be active until the next sieges. The castle can also be in the "Neutral" status if the castle belongs to an NPC.
 +
 +Clan leader can decide side by using skill {{icon:skill0246.png?16&nolink}} **[[skill:19034_1|Imprint of Light]]** or {{icon:skill0246.png?16&nolink}} **[[skill:19035_1|Imprint of Darkness]]**. An hour after siege ends, clan leader can choose different side through chamberlain NPC, but it will be final decision.

 +===== Taxes =====
 +Castles serve as both a symbol of power and a key source of wealth for clans. These player-controlled castles allow their owners to collect taxes, exert influence over territories, and play a crucial role in the game's economy. Taxes collected are directly linked to castle management and territory control, with significant differences between the Light and Dark variants.
 +
 +  * Clans that own the castles of **[[castle:1|Gludio]]**, **[[castle:2|Dion]]**, **[[castle:3|Giran]]**, **[[castle:4|Oren]]** and **[[castle:6|Innadril]]** can only collect tax income, if the castle of Aden has taken the side of the "Darkness".
 +  * Clans that own the castles **[[castle:8|Goddard]]** and **[[castle:9|Schuttgart]]** can collect income from taxes only, if the castle of Rune has taken the side of the "Darkness".
 +
 +Tax income is placed into the castle chest at midnight (server time) every Monday. 
 +
 +<WRAP center round l2warning 80%>
 +Mammon prices are also increased, if they are spawned in the territory (Giran, Aden and Rune) with taxes.
