Hymn of the Caverns

The Hymn of the Caverns is the song sung at the Blood Moon's Nexus by the entire crowd at the Hall of the Daemon Ascendant.   The meaning of the exact language of the Hymn of the Caverns is known only to the Speaker for the Dead and their immediate subordinates in the Company of Hades. Cryptomancers and other linguistically-focused sages have attempted to puzzle out its meaning for centuries. It seems to change slightly each nexus and utilize a mixture of Common, Celestial, and Infernal, alongside some unknown extinct language. Nevertheless, all members of the crowd at the Blood Moon's Nexus seem to know the song instinctually.   The Hymn of the Caverns is thought to be a key element in conjuring the chained angels that assist the Hadesian priests in the execution of the damned. It is also believed to open a metaphysical gate through which the Souls of the dead and damned can reach Hades.
