No, they didn't.  That was Lorraine, not Avalon.  Avalon was where Corwin had
once lived and ruled, and we know that it fell, but are never told to what.
Whilst
seeking Avalon, he found Lorraine, got caught up in the local battle with the
minions of the circle (which started as a small ring of toadstools), and so on.
Later, he finally does make it to a shadow similar to Avalon, that also had
a dark
menace similar to the circle, but that was some hellmaids and we aren't given
much descriptions apart from that...
