The Paladin in the Abyss

“It’s not surprising you feel that way.” The Scholar nervously scanned the surroundings, “As the saying goes, where there is light, there is shadow, and the precursor to the Fallen Shadow Netherworld, the shadow plane, was the shadow of the Prime Material Plane. Later, the Goddess of Night, Shael, in order to compete with the former Goddess of Magic, Straya, connected the shadow plane with the negative energy plane, thereby creating the Fallen Shadow Netherworld. Everything here originates from the real world, but what is displayed is its darkest, most evil version…”

“Are you saying that if there’s a city in the real world, there would be a corresponding city here?” Alamir raised his Hardhead Hammer. Under normal circumstances, this magic weapon should shine as brightly as a torch, but now it emitted only a very faint light, a sight that made the Elf feel somewhat familiar.

“Yes.” Kalalin nodded, “And not just cities, you might even recognize some familiar mountains, rivers, forests, and lakes, but the shadow plane has a way of distorting and corrupting them. As for what form that takes, we’ll likely have to discover it for ourselves.”
