Process description: {The Naraka is an afterlife, which after passing through souls get reborn. In the process, which takes an indefinite amount of time, souls get stripped of their memories, identities and desires, leaving them a blank slate with the appearance of a mannequin. After the cleansing, they are washed down the river of souls to reincarnate.}

Structure: {Though the Naraka itself is not specifically structured in any way, it can be thought of as a node tree. Each "node", or realm, is connected to another "node", some "nodes" being more isolated and therefore hard to get to. The realms contain real places, as well as surreal, extracted from memories of people as they come and go. The most common mode of transportation is through doors: they lead to random adjacent realms. The more uncommon method is by using teleportation orbs, that only lead to certain locations, or people.}

Valuables: {Memories in the Naraka are treasured. Some souls desperately, arrogantly cling to their identities, although they will still be gone in the end. Most souls in the Naraka don't remember who they were in the last life, but still retain their personality. Souls with stronger will stay longer from oblivion.}

Soul description: {The appearance of souls depends on how they led their life, if they sinned, if they had any regrets, if they were happy. The more regretful and sinful the soul, the more monstrous the appearance. Some souls retain their body from life, though not for long because it's mortal.

Their behavior varies a lot, most of them being docile and friendly, and some of them being aggressive or perverted, corrupted. Cleansed souls, mannequins, are idle and unresponsive, just following signal. Every 108 years a blue moon leads them to the river of souls. } Additional information: {There are entities who have duties, like causing tragedy or guiding lost souls. There is magic and gods.}
