Any adventurer who has died is likely familiar with the Cave. Historically known variously as the Cave of Sarapis, the Cave of Maya, and the Cave of Thoth, its exit lies at the edge of the Western Ithmia. It is here that one is transported by Divine powers after navigating the Soulrealms, should they find themselves having to Embrace Death after they die. No one may linger within the cave for long, as doing so is commonly considered an act of blasphemy and ingratitude.
