Hell, or the White City, is the residence of Devils.
Ideology, History and Trade
UNDER CONSTRUCTION
The Book of Pilgrims
It is quite difficult for ordinary visitors to describe the White City, thanks to the Law-Furnaces constantly at work within;[1] sometimes, it appears as a book more than a city.[2] That said, we can say some things with certainty.
Hell is a walled city, with massive gates at its main entrance.[3] Between Marigold Station and the gates, the road to Hell is paved with white stones[4] (not, unfortunately, good intentions). The air is thick with smog from its Law-Furnaces,[5] but through the haze one can see the Square of Heroes and Martyrs, whose statues occasionally are left to crumble because "all things fall in the end."[6] Other known locations within Hell include the Clarity of Bells,[7][8] the Manse of Sacrifice,[6] and the Sanctity of Saviours;[9] the city also is known to have a garden and a greenhouse.[10]
