The Underworld was an Isu settlement ruled by Hades, later characterised in Greek mythology as one of its afterlives. It is also sometimes referred to as Hades after its patron god.

History

The Underworld was one of the three Sister Realms, and was home to Hades.

Legacy

In around 422 BCE, during the Peloponnesian War, the Spartan misthios Kassandra experienced a fictionalized simulation of the Underworld as presented to her by Aletheia. Within the simulations, Kassandra arrived at the Underworld after being thrown down the entrance to it by Persephone.[1] Upon arriving to the Underworld proper, Kassandra was accosted by Cerberos. After defeating the three-headed guard dog in combat, Kassandra came face to face with Hades, who demanded that she find four guardians to replace Cerberos.[2]

Years later, the Assassin Layla Hassan would relive Kassandra's genetic memories of the Simulations, herself guided by Aletheia.[3]

Geography

The prison Tartaros could be found within the realm.[4]

Notable was also the river Styx which ran through the realm, though it was rumored to originate in Arkadia.[5]
