The Gate

The Gate is an unofficial name given to a cave containing a steel gate. The cave is located underneath the Aedwinian capital city of New Steinberg, within the catacombs.
== History ==
Very little is known about the cave itself. What little information was recorded about the creator of the gate, or when the cave was discovered or rediscovered has since been lost. Various folktales have been concocted to explain the purpose of the gate or its history, but which one is true is unclear, if any.
The cave is only accessible through the New Steinberg catacombs. Mushrooms and moss can be seen growing throughout the cave. The cave itself winds around and has a steady decline until it reaches the gate itself, which prevents further exploration of the cave. Numerous warnings and cave drawings serve to deter any would-be explorers from going further. What lies beyond the bars is uncertain.
== Legends ==
Folklore surrounding the gate generally aims to answer the question of what is behind the bars that’s so dangerous. Most pin it to a beast, typically things like dragons, ogres, or the undead. In Hedatist circles, it’s speculated that certain mythological creatures could be found. Much more uncommonly in those said circles is the theory that the giants can be found beyond the bars, upholding the mountains.
