The Curse of Candlemere is a quest in Pathfinder: Kingmaker.
Journal[ | ]
“ | The Stolen Lands are full of weird places. Take the island in the middle of Candlemere Lake, for instance — it seems like just some regular, remote place from afar, calm and quiet. But the local fishers all keep their boats as far away from the island as possible, and there are tales of ghostly lights dancing on the island's shores at night. Some say that something terrible happened at the tower long ago, something so dark and abominable that the place is still cursed.

We first heard about the island from Willas Gunderson, a self-proclaimed hero and adventurer. Truth be told, I'm more inclined to think "coward" than "hero."
