The Veil of Shadows
A hell like no other
"I can feel something horrible watching me... It's always right behind me, but if I turn around there's nothing there..."
Unknown Adventurer
The Heart of Darkness
The Veil is where all the power of darkness converges into a single and infinite point. There is nothing in the Veil, but every secret and every unknown is kept within. This is where the souls known as the Forsaken are cast to live out an eternity of emptiness. No other realm exemplifies Hell to such a terrible degree.Geography
The Veil is a featureless world of inky darkness and a floor of ash so fine that it crumbles at the slightest touch, but everyone who has entered reports seeing ghostly images of trees, homes and even people.

Author's Notes
The Veil of Shadows is intended to be my visualization of Hell. This is a realm without light, without sound, without texture. The only sensation is the burning eyes of Oblivion that stare mercilessly down at those lost within. As she and she alone can draw souls back from the Veil, her presence is a constant reminder that there will be no mercy. In one word, the Veil symbolizes hopelessness.
