**Duration:** 1 hour **Throne Investment Time:** Up to 60 seconds

1. <mark style="color:green;">**Investment Mechanics:**</mark>
   * To claim the throne, the **Sealer** must stay within the throne area and accumulate investment time (e.g., 30 or 55 seconds).
   * If the Sealer leaves the throne area, their invested time will decrease by 1 second every second they remain outside.
   * If the Sealer does not return to the throne in time, their entire investment will be lost.
2. <mark style="color:green;">**Guild Roles:**</mark>
   * Both the **Guild Master (GM)** and the **Assistant Guild Master (AGM)** can invest in the throne.
   * However, their investments are **independent**. For example, if the Guild Master starts investing, the Assistant Guild Master cannot continue their progress and vice versa. Also, Guild members/holder must hold the switches at the same time in order for their Guild Master invest time to the throne or else if one of the holders release the switch, Guild Master will not be able to invest time on the throne.
3. <mark style="color:green;">**Winning Condition:**</mark>
   * The guild that first reaches **60 seconds of throne investment** will take control of the castle.
   * To secure victory, the guild must defend the castle for the remaining time in the event (up to 1 hour).
4. <mark style="color:green;">**Castle Ownership:**</mark>
   * The winning guild will gain control of the castle and access to the **Land of Trials** for 1 week.
   * Ownership lasts until the next Castle Siege event begins.
