At the edge of Draethor, where even light itself dares not venture, lies the Abyssal Chasm, a place of endless darkness and despair. And there, at the edge of the void, stands Gorath, the Void Watcher, an archfiend whose very presence drains the hope from those who behold him. Gorath is not a being of fire or ice, but of pure nothingness, an embodiment of the void that consumes all. Gorath’s form is a shifting mass of darkness, formless and featureless, save for the glowing violet eyes that pierce through the shadows. His body is made of void-stuff, constantly unraveling and reforming, as if he is not bound by the same laws of reality as the rest of Draethor. He carries no weapon, for he needs none—his very presence is enough to break the spirit of any who dare approach him.
Abyssal Chasm
The Abyssal Chasm is a place of endless descent, a bottomless pit into which souls are cast, never to return. The ground at the edge of the chasm is cracked and jagged, and the wind that rises from its depths carries with it the hollow cries of those who have fallen. The void itself is a swirling mass of dark energy, a place where time and space lose all meaning.
Master of Despair
Gorath does not seek to torment the souls in his domain with fire or ice; he seeks to consume them, to drain them of all hope until nothing remains. His servants, the Void Fiends, are creatures of pure shadow, formless and insatiable, feeding on the despair of the souls they capture. Gorath himself watches from the edge of the chasm, his gaze ever fixed on the abyss below, waiting for the next soul to fall.
The Sin of Hopelessness
Those sent to the Abyssal Chasm are the souls who spread despair and hopelessness in life—those who tore down others, leaving them with no hope or purpose. These souls are cast into the void, where they fall endlessly, never reaching the bottom, never finding peace. Gorath’s punishment is not one of physical torment, but of eternal hopelessness, as the souls trapped in his domain are consumed by the same despair they once inflicted on others.
The Abyssal Chasm is a bottomless pit, a gaping wound in Draethor that stretches infinitely downward. The ground at the edge of the chasm is cracked and jagged, and the wind that blows from its depths carries the hollow cries of those who have fallen in. Looking into the abyss is like gazing into pure darkness—an endless void where nothing can escape. There is no sky above this chasm, only swirling black clouds that seem to drink in all light, leaving the landscape in perpetual twilight.
Inhabitants:
The primary inhabitants of the Abyssal Chasm are the Void Fiends, monstrous creatures that emerge from the darkness to drag souls into the pit. These beings are formless, made of pure shadow and void, and they take great pleasure in feeding on the despair of the souls they capture. Gorath himself watches from the edge of the chasm, a silent observer of the torment below.
Sins:
Souls sent to the Abyssal Chasm are those who embraced hopelessness and nihilism in life—those who tore down others, spreading despair and crushing the spirits of those around them. They are cast into the endless void, where they fall forever, lost in the darkness, with no hope of escape. The chasm reflects their inner emptiness, an endless descent into nothingness.
