## Dark realm

* The dark realm is the opposite of 3god's realm, very dark, has many volcanos and lave rivers, cold and evil, even the weather is bad (it is always Rain of blood, cold wind, all plants are dead and when you see any food don't eat it cause it will taste like shit and you will be poisoned, sometimes you can hear the screams of sinners), also in the dark realm, they are growing a dangerous type of dark-purple crystals that can be weakened if not even erase the magical abilities (this kind of crystals are mostly used in prison to suppress someone magical ability). the dark realm is a homeworld of the demons (and rulers), and it is an eternal punishment for evil souls. The dark realm is cruel for souls, and for living ones that enter the real,m, especially for living ones, when a living being will enter the dark realm and it is not a demon or god, it will slowly lose its mind and start hearing whispers that say to kill your companions, you will start having nightmares have the illusion of death of you love ones and when you will completely be broken you will become corrupted forever.

* In the dark realm was the final battle between the demon's army vs the united forces of humans and monsters. In a history book, you can say that it was a glorious day but in reality, it was painful cause many good soldiers have to die that day and others were just tired and happy cause it is the end.

### 4 kingdoms:

* the 4 kingdoms are the main and most important places in the dark realm, each of the kingdoms is placed, in one of four sectors "North, East, Weast, South". Each kingdom took one of those places, in the South is a kingdom ruled by the most powerful titan that exists (his name is Lucifer), each kingdom has its king, and the kingdom of the East is ruled by Ventis and his two royal soldiers "Dagon and E-tire" that is connected to the Earth/Geneiz (our heroes home planet), the kingdom of the North is ruled by Loki (which is the coldest part of hell), and Kindom of the Weast kingdom is ruled by Abagodon. The 4 kingdoms are the main pillars of the dark realm, as each of those kingdoms has a magical orb also known as the hearts of hell, and these hearts of hell are located in a secret dungeon.
	+ **Dungeon:**
		- Each dungeon is a different pocket dimension, to which only the kings of the kingdoms have access. And in case one of the kings died, access to the dungeon is given to the one that they trust the most.
		- The dungeons are very precious and are one big liability, the dungeons seam to be semi-alive as the labyrinth and the traps of the dungeons are constantly changing, only the ones with access to the dungeon can instantly go to the center where the orb is. You may ask for what reason the traps and labyrinth exist, well even if the one with access can go directly to the center, there might be a day when someone unworthy would enter the labyrinth by forcing the king, and since the dungeon is semi-alive, the dungeon can tell if the one that enters the dungeon is good or bad, so this traps and labyrinth itself is a safety precaution.
	+ **The orb/hearts of hell:**
		- Those orbs are the main reason, why the dark is like it is. These orbs are called the hearts of hell, as these orbs are literary keeping this realm in tack, So yea the orbs mainly keep the physical form of hell, and without it, hell will be like an uncontrolled storm of chaos.
		- If one of the orbs will be destroyed the dark realm will have an earthquake, but if all orbs are destroyed, then hell will collapse and by that, I mean that the realm will still exist but it will be in chaos, and out of control, not even gods will be able to easily bring the realm back to the original glory. And if that would ever happen then it is very bad if hell won't put under control then in less then in 500 mortals years hell will start overflowing into the other realms, and by that, it means that hell would start slowly start to overlapping other realms causing chaos and destruction.

* **The dark realm has 9 physical entrances to it, one of which, is on planet Geneiz:**
	+ The reason for these doors' existence is, cause the dark realm needs to have some connection to the mortal realm, so the evil/sinister souls would enter hell. Thanks to these doors there is a much easier and faster way for these souls to go to hell.
	+ After the incident on planet Geneiz, the other doors were reinforced in such a way that the doors can be only opened from the inside (from hell), and the only way to open from the outside (from the mortal side) is only if a river person or one of the 3 gods decide to, as they are the only ones in un undercore with the right authority to do it (in rare occasions one of the 13 also can open these doors but under a specific condition).

## Locations:

* Only locations that were shown in the war, not all of the dark realm/hell. The location here is just a location of one of the 70 islands of one sector, as each sector has 70 islands, and each island has a different size, heck the island that all these locations down there, are planned on one of the small islands in the whole hell.

### Gate of hell:

* The gate of hell is placed far away on the top of destroyed moutans, surrounded by fire, o the gate is put 4 sealing symbols that star demons from coming close to the gate, the gate work as an exit and as an entrance, and the same-looking gates are placed on an island surrounded by mountains and are covered in moss and loans. The geats of hell are as old and dark realm and the dark realm as old as the planet that mortal is living on. The gate that is in the overworld are sealed by enchanting chains which make sure that gates will e never open but it is not possible to open the gates. Over time the gate protection is slowly weakening but is still strong enough so far.

### Castle of hell:

* It looks like a castle but dark and it is moving, the castle big have walls, and it either is a fortress that no one is brave enough to even think to even attack. The castle is full of secret rooms and hidden passages. The inside of the castle is unknown cause no one that was alive or was not a demon was inside that castle but it is known to have a throne room behind a dark crystal that imitated purple energy, besides that the inside is unknown. Castle is protected by 880500 demons and at least 3 high demons when it is war, where there is o war all 8 high demons are there to protect the demon lord.

### Fortress:

* A fortress is a place where all souls are going to be tortured, the fortress is surrounded by a lave and is close to three volcanos. The fortress is a big tower surrounded by a wall and it is the second most secure place in all of the dark realm, the first one is a castle.

### Bastions:

* There are 3 bastions in the dark realm and the bout is very secure, the bastion is placed in two different locations, and that location is the only way to go further in the dark realm, and securing one of them is a strategic move during the war. The bastions are big walls with big gateways, each bastion has at least 600 demons to guard.

### the land of death:

* the land of the dead is what we call the rest of the dark realm where the souls of dead people and where dragons put the rulers in cages are located. The land of death is considered to be endless and worst than the place where the main battle of the dark age was going on. It is considered that the rest of the dark realm is like the 3 gods' realms as endless so none of the realms would be overflowed with souls.
* But the truth is that the land of death is just a large wetland that separates all 4 sectors from each other, titans, can easily travel to each sector at will as they know secret shortcuts, that even the gods are not aware of.

## Inhabitants

### Souls

* The inhabitants of the dark realm (Hell) are souls of evil people that are punished to be tortured there for a whole eternity. The sinner's souls have all their memories and are tortured for a very long time until they are permanently broken, and at some point, in time the sinner's souls are taken/sent to **heaven** and can go through reincarnation.

##### true demons:

* The souls weren't originally meant to turn to demons, but because of the dragon's corruption and their weird new demonic magic, and they used some of the souls that still have some memories left, were used as their experiment in creating the low and middle-ranking demons, as their foot-soldiers during their conquer of the mortal realm.

* Loki one of the 4 kings of hell, watched them from far away, on how these evil dragons were creating demons. Loki was very intrigued by that, and he did something similar, but unlike the dragons, he didn't force the souls into this experiment, but he rather decided to make, you can say a deal, with souls, and the souls that agreed to it, not only gained a body but also new powers. Loki calls them true demons, as they are not bound to someone's will, he already has 400 true demons. The true demons are not extremely strong they are as strong as middle-ranking demons that dragons created (Loki calls them normal demons) some are even high-ranking (Loki refers to them as arch-demons).
	+ Later on when Chara was in his kingdom in "politician mater", she learned about these true demons by accident (if an accident to you is causing havoc there), and after a talk with Loki, she did agree that as long as the true demons won't cause any problems such as the demons that dragons created and send on the planet geneiz, Loki can continue creating the true demons, as long as other kingdoms also will be able to do it, and that the true demons like mortals after a certain time will die of old age, that why Chara use law manipulation in hell and make that the true demons after 250 million years will die of old age, and their souls will go through reincarnation, Loki as well other kings of hell agreed to it, and so the true demons came to existence.
	+ **PS:** Loki is a calm and free person there, other titans call him the titan of freedom or a king without a kingdom, as the way he rules, is to live to its fullest. His kingdom is the nices part of the entire hell.

### Titans:

* Titans are the true inhabitants of the dark realm, they lived there long ago, but after the age of chaos ended the titans were weakened and lost a lot of mana, so when the **dragons** were sent to the dark realm they fought against the titans and somehow they won (cause of the save button) the titans lost and were locked in cages, from where dragons feed on there power to turn them self into the **demons**. The Titans were not powerful to stop the dragon but the combined power of the titans was enough to destroy the save button so the dragons (now demons) couldn't save anymore (so we need to thank the titans for that cause if they didn't do it we would be screw).

* It is unknown how many rulers there are/were cause one count but in the history books (that were founded in gods realm and a very old library) is written that there are at least 12000 titans (in the sector that the gate is connected), but only 34 entered the overworld.

* **Know names of the Titans**: Zephir (titan of wind); Mephirot (titan of darkness); Lucifer (king of the titans, overlord of hell, titan of shadows); Abagodon (the destroyer), Amonneus (titan of sins); Dagon [titan of fire (fire demon by Grillby)]; Ventis (titan of poison); Keranous (Lighting titan), E-tire (titan of light), Loki (Titan of winter).

* In historic records, the existence of the titans was erased, and forbidden to speak, the reason for that was to ensure that no one will try to realize the titans ever again. And to make sure that there would be no evidence left anything that would give info about titan's existence would be erased, but there was one place that couldn't be erased and that was the "titan's graveyard" which is located in Aru island. The graveyard is the only place left with the evidence of the titan's existence and the reason why this graveyard was left, is cause the aru island used it as a way to ensure the religion of the light goddess by creating a story about the titan, as well cause aru island secretly wants to use the titan's blood to created supersoldiers to protect their kingdom.

#### Origin/story of the titans:

* The titans were made soon after the gods create everything. Michael one of the gods after creating a dark realm for the evil souls decides to create titans natural inhabitants of that realm to rule over that place and have control over the evil souls that ended up (they are the overseers of that realm).

* The titans for many centuries were doing their job of guarding the souls of sinners and controlling the dark realm so it would be chaos, however, one day some idiots opened the gate of hell (the physical gate that allows the living to enter hell, made by the gods for unknown reason), the fullish mortals decided o opened the gate and let the titans out of the dark realm. At first, the titans haven't had to go outside but, when they smell "blood, death disperse and chaos", the titans end the suffering, and leave the dark realm to stop this chaos, (if not that the gods have gone on a mission they would stop titans from coming out and making even more chaos to already bloody war). As the Titans exit the dark realm they go to the places where more blood was spilled and so the tians go hunting the people that have blood on their hands no matter if they did it for good or evil reasons for them it was a sin and they want to punish them as that was their reason to exist punish the sinners. They arrived to cause a lot of chaos, as well it was the main reason why the order of light was formed, and they have send the titans back to the dark realm, and they sealed the door.

* When the gods punished dragons and send them to the dark realm and cause war between titans and dragons if not that the dragons having the save button they would be dead now. Titan was losing the war even tho they were way stronger the dragons start pushing the titans and selling them in cages that were meant to seal something worse, so the 3 strongest titans decided to join their powers and destroy the save button in with it was successful but they were sold and the dragons too over the dark realm. And so the rest is history the titans were sealed for most of the time they miss the dark age but 200 years after the dark age ended titans were freed by the River person and Anna, and so the titans once again ruled over the dark age and swore to never again let the same thing happen ever again.

#### Story of titans in Light goddess religion:

* Long ago, when the world was young before the light goddess created humans, there were monsters and before monsters there were titans. The titans were the first race that the light goddess created to help her in making the world, the titans were made to create and form planets where life could exist, and so on one of these planets, the beings that were at that time called the primal/wild ones, the primal ones were evolving and the goddess saw great potential in them, and so she decided to guide them for a long time, and while she was spending time with the titans have grown jealousy as they were the ones that the goddess made first, and out of jealousy the titans have decided to destroy the primal ones but they failed and its resulted with the light goddess destroying the titans, and so the titan's graveyard was made, out of the body of the death titans monsters were born, and these monsters infuse with the hatred of titans towards the primal ones the monsters have started a war against the primal ones and so one of the first wars between humans and monsters have happened.
* The light goddess killed the titans and by doing so she unintentionally created monsters. This version has caused a lot of conflict in aru island as the basis of humans towards monsters has grown larger (they did this intentionally, as at Aru kingdom was at that time very racist toward monsters).

## Facts

1. **Dark realm/hell:**
	* The dark realm has 4 sectors: east, west, north, and south.
	* Each of these 4 sectors has a kingdom that is ruled by one of the 4 kings of hell (strongest titans)
	* There are is unknown how many titans go outside to the overworld or how many they of them are.
	* Any historical record of the rulers was erased for unknown reasons.
	* There was no living being that ever survive inside the dark realm longer than 10 days.
	* Only titans, demons, and sinners' souls are living there.
	* The dark realm is a real fucking Hell.
	* In the dark realm, the most important battle in the history of Geneiz has happened.
	* The dark realm is a punishment for sinners' souls and after at least 500 thousand years the souls are granted to be revived.
	* Inside the dark realm, time goes there differently, one day in the living world is 1 million years there.
	* The castle of hell was the place where the final battle happened.
	* Inside the dark realm, there are (each soul separate) around 865 billion souls of humans, monsters, and animals.
	* Inside the dark realm are growing dark-purple crystals that can be weakened if not temporary-erased with magical abilities.
		+ These stones are referred to as the anti-magic crystals, which negate, nullified, and destabilize, all forms of magic.
		+ The stones have a limited range of 8 meters.
		+ The anti-magic stones can only be found in the dark realm.
		+ These stones can be implanted inside someone's body, causing that person to no longer use magic (for as long as the stone is inside his body).
		+ The anti-magic is a fusion between the **force** of magic and the force of negativity (in a similar way the anti-mater was created)
		+ Even tho the anti-magic stones can negate magic it doesn't mean that there is no resistance to it, 3 gods and their successors have an ability in which their magic is unaffected by the anti-magic stones. The same goes for the titans that lived in hell for so long that these stories have any effect on them.
		+ Anti-magic stones unlike other stones can be changed into a liquid or Gaz sustains as the stones would lose the anti-magic property, but also cause if the anti-magic stone would go through such change the stone would implode (plus the gods make sure that this would be impossible).
		+ These stones are the reason why magic in hell weakened.
2. **Gate of hell:**
	* The gate of hell is the only way to exit or enter the dark realm.
	* The gate of hell is made of very strong metal, that metal is the strongest in the whole undercore, so it is not easy to destroy the gate.
	* There was an incident when Jullie break the gates of hell, how? It is a question that to this day is unknown, thankfully, later on, all gates got upgraded which Jullie hopefully wouldn't break them again.
	* The chains that are put on the gate in the overworld are specifically made and enchanted so that only when the chains will be broken the gate will have the ability to open, but as long as the chains are in tack the gate will never be opened.
		+ This only includes the gates on the geneiz planet, the other gates are not in chains
		+ During the dark age when the final days of the war were about to happen, the chains were looking like they were living there in the first place.
		+ The chain has been created by a long-dead civilization called "In-ki-ja". The chains are a few thousand years old and were used after the titans were defeated. The chains were pulled on the gate after the true demons were defeated.
		+ Only powerful entities like gods or people that know what magic was used to make the chains can destroy the chains.
3. **Titans:**
	* The titans were later freed after the dark age ended by River person.
	* The tian's blood is dark purple.
	* The titans could destroy the dragons easily if not the dragons still were able to use the save button.
	* Those who long the blood of titans will turn into hideous monsters, like amalgam or worse.
	* The Titan's graveyard is the only place where is any historical evidence of the titans' existence.
	* Humans and Monsters' royal families from the entire world decide to hide the existence of the titans however the Aru island left the titan's graveyard. They hide their existence cause they were afraid that someone will once again open the gate.
	* Titans weren't the evil ones in the chaos age they just simply were doing what they were made to do.
	* Titan's job is to guard the dark realm and punish sinners.
	* Titans can't be corrupted by evil in any way possible, as they have immunity to corruption, as well they have immunity to mind controls as mind control can lead them to corruption so they are also immune to that.
	* When the titans enter the mortal realm, most of their power was weakened, cause of the **Divine order**, which allowed the **order of light** to defeat them.
