Lower rings

The lower rings make up the demonic realms of Undinia, with each ring representing a different crime against the soul and the destination of any soul that commits the sin. Ruled over by the Lords and Ladies of Sin, each with their own goals and personalities, yet each is subservient to the Shadow King. There are currently five rings  

The Black Citadel

In the center of the rings sits a single floating black fortified city. This is home to the Shadow King and is the destination of any being who either destroys their soul or is dumb enough to become soul-sworn of the Shadow King. It should be noted that every other Noble of Sin is destined to be enslaved here if they die. It is also home to most natural demons.  

1)The Endless battlefield

The only ring to be continuous, the battlefield is a massive area of barren rock surrounding the Black Citadel, with the only features being craters, trenches, and other rock formations created by the fighting. Dying on the battlefield is no release, as the 'victim' reawakens moments later remembering everything that has happened since arriving. This is the resting place for those who kill for no reason, slowly turning into demonic forms as they kill more, the strongest even gaining the chance to become the Lord of Murder himself, by killing the current. This is the ring connected to the tear under Crowharrow, though this was closed in 122 Fey  

2)The Hollow halls

Ruled by the Hollow Lord, several floating structures orbit within the ring, each a prison for those who sinned by tearing the soul from the body. All Lichs that meet their final death get imprisoned here, with the Hollow Lord being the only one to freely travel between the planes, though it is not known where the portal resides. The most common structure is a tower.  

3)The palace of souls

Ruled by the the Shadow King's daughter Mepstie, Lady of Deals, only her soul-sworn are destined for this ring, others who sell their souls end up in their 'masters' domain. An opulent palace orbits the ring, with marble and gold colonnades, lavish gardens, and halls to make the Queen of Rivell feel poor. The portal to Taoul Reza Noach connects it to Undinia.  

4)Orbs of Curruption

Three 'planetoids' orbit in this ring, each revealing a different type of soul corruption. Ruled over by the Lord of Lies, this is the resting place of those who damn the innocent or cause suffering. The planetoids are
The shadow forest A dark forest where demons hunt the inhabitants by sound, this is for those who used their words and rhetoric to punish the innocent.
The Demonweb A giant spider web that corrupts the body of those who used looks to get their way. Lilsea is thought to have been corrupted by this area.
The Trial Grounds A Maze of puzzles with the promise of freedom for passing through, all are logic and intelligence puzzles and is where those who use strength to bully the innocent are sent.  

5)The Soul Market

A large city that orbits within the ring. Ruled over by the Master of Imps it's where those who traded in others are sent to be punished. It is also home to the majority of Demons outside of the Black Citadel. The City has portals to most other rings, the palace of the lord anyway, and Tarverloth. It also is the wealthiest area of the lower rings, though it often ends up trading it's own customers at some point.
