Some time during the Underworld's history, the Gedtet, a race of undead hunters, was exterminated. We know not who or what the Gedtet were, or what exactly became of them. We know only that now, they are gone, and perhaps only Ugrach and his know what happened to them.

During the [[Help:Mythology|War of Humanity]], Prince Slith of the Underworld, then at his father Ugrach's side, decided to aid the forces of the [[Triumvirate]], eager to fight against the hated '''Thoth'''. Furious, Ugrach cast Slith and his followers from the plane and made a declaration of neutrality in which he stated that he wished not to butt heads with the gods, least of all '''Thoth''', who is Death Himself. Among those followers was General [[Zsarachnor]], Slith's chief advisor. Later, at the [[Help Mythology|Battle of Nishnatoba]], sensing his impending defeat, Slith quit the battlefield, opting instead to return to the Underworld to reconcile differences with his father. However, his excursion was short-lived; at the close of the war, [[Ayar]] exiled Slith to the [[Chaos Plane]], where he and Zsarachnor brooded for untold centuries. And that is the last bit of action the Underworld saw in quite some time.

In more recent years, the Underworld was rediscovered in 338 AF, thanks to the opening of a previously sealed section of the lower level of Azdun. Brave enough adventurers may seek entry by going there, to the [[Temple of Unlife]], and touching the massive root of [[Yggdrasil]] which the Temple is built around.
