The Pit (Galara)

General Overview
Any place called Hell is guaranteed not to be a pleasant place, and the Pit certainly lives up to the expectation. It is a barren, alien place, a land of darkness and flames; the Pit is a giant crater into the earth, as if seeking to burrow away from the ever-present, oppressive miasma of the Lethe Clouds. These yellowish-purple clouds are vaporised water from the river Lethe, carried up the Pit by the wind convections of the Morningstar's passage, and they still retain the potent memory-sapping properties of that water. There are no stars here, no moon, not even a sun- the Morningstar is a great orb of mystical flames generated by arcanotech devices in Pandemonium.
The native life here is strange and vile to mortal sensibilities, and fresh water is a thing of precious rarity. Mortals can survive in Hell, but it is neither easy nor pleasant, for the most part.
Hell is divided into the Nine Circles, nine bands of settled terrain based around the Pit itself. The first and ninth circles are on level ground- the rim around the crater and the crater's floor respectively. The other seven circles are on the crater's walls- some quirk of gravity orientates it, bar in a 15 mile wide circle directly centered on Pandemonium, so that "down" is towards the steeply sloped walls of the crater. The Circles are, in numerical order from First to Ninth; Emptiness, Tempest, Tears, Toil, Slaughter, Industry, Delight, Malebolge and Pandemonium.
