Crystal Spire

The Crystal Spire, formerly known as the Bone Castle, was the joint divine realm of Kelemvor and Jergal. It was located in the City of the Dead in the Oinos layer of Hades according to the Great Wheel cosmology, and in the City of Judgment in the Fugue Plane according to the World Tree and World Axis cosmologies.

Description
The spire was made of glimmering transparent rock.

Cosmography
In the World Tree and World Axis cosmologies, the tower stood at the center of the City of Judgment, around which stood the Wall of the Faithless. From the Spire, Kelemvor judged the dead who had not been claimed by any deity. Those who were judged by Kelemvor as the False were sentenced to spend eternity in the city, suffering the appropriate punishment in accordance with their crimes. The Faithless were sentenced to be plastered into the Wall for eternity until they were absorbed into the Wall itself.

In the Great Wheel cosmology, the City of Judgment and the City of the Dead were distinct locations. The City of Judgment stood in the Fugue Plane and was the location where the dead waited to be claimed by their deities, while the City of the Dead in Oinos was the location of both the Crystal Spire and the Wall of the Faithless.

History
The realm was originally known as the Bone Castle and was the divine realm of Myrkul. It was located in the middle of a realm of the dead known as the City of Strife. During the Time of Troubles, the realm was taken over by Cyric, who had assumed Myrkul's original portfolio and took over the entire city as his realm. When Cyric read from the Cyrinishad in the, he lost control of his realm and was driven away by Kelemvor, who took control of the realm and assumed much of Cyric's portfolio.

Kelemvor's first act upon seizing control of the realm was to change it into a gleaming tower of crystal, as a symbol of fairness and transparency. He renamed it the Crystal Tower, later also changing the surrounding city's name to City of the Dead.
