 When a person dies, their soul is transported on an old steam train that runs into the depths of the Underworld. It is strictly a one way journey; there’s no returning on this train. But its tracks run like a guiding path all through the Underworld, and it is this path which player characters will follow, on foot, on their journey out of the Underworld. The locations listed on this page and on the map are key milestones player characters should expect to pass on this journey. When a person dies, their soul is transported on an old steam train that runs into the depths of the Underworld.

 Overlooking the masses of the dead, the rising spires of Elysium stand out from a mile away. A gated community living in a state of perpetual ease and overflowing art deco opulence, Elysium is open only to a select few - those lucky enough to know someone on the inside, and willing to make the deals required to join their ranks. Ticket holders are just about the only thing more elite around these parts, and those journeying to exit the Underworld have sparked the interest of Elysium’s residents. As such, Elysium has plans to open its pearly gates to these precocious travellers, offering them a once in an afterlife opportunity to step inside and see how much greener the grass could be. Overlooking the masses of the dead, the rising spires of Elysium stand out from a mile away.

 Eventually, the tracks run into a tunnel, where all light and sound is swallowed up, leaving you alone with nothing but your own thoughts, and a choice: to keep on moving forwards in the stifling nothingness of Limbo, or to turn back, so close to your goal. Though you may have travelled as a group up to this point, you came into this world alone, and to exit it, you must stand alone once more, at least until you see a light at the end of the tunnel. Eventually, the tracks run into a tunnel, where all light and sound is swallowed up, leaving you alone with nothing but your own thoughts, and a choice: to keep on moving forwards in the stifling nothingness of Limbo, or to turn back, so close to your goal.
