Hel

Hel is an important location in Meropolan beliefs. It was created by Hele, and is partially named after her, with the removal of the "e."

About
Not much is known about Hel, other than the fact that it is the opposite of Elire's afterlife realm, Paradis.

All souls are entitled to an afterlife, although some are not able to "deserve" the rights of Paradis. Paradis is for souls who merely earn the right of eternal joy and happiness through previous actions, and Hel is for souls who were denied entry to Paradis, or cannot enter at all.

Hel is not, however, an afterlife for the damned, unlike Hell. Hele herself claims that Hel is "an afterlife that is shaped by the way you were in life." Damned souls fade away forever as a result of The Rule, but it's presumed that due to the fact that one's consciousness always exists, they will still be around in some form.
