Hopeless

Hopeless was a large gate-town leading to Hades from the Outlands.

Description
Hopeless was surrounded completely by a wall, which had a single entrance. The entrance was made from red stone and was carved into a screaming human face. The city was built in a large pit and was unique in that there was only a single road, which spiralled down the pit. At the end of the road was a courtyard which was home of the gate-town's Gate.

All the buildings of Hopeless were made from the same gray stone and wood.

Gates
Found at the bottom of the pit, the Gate to Hades appeared as a large well filled with viscous black ooze.
