Grim Underworld

The Grim Underworld is a world parallel to Gielinor. Apparently, the souls of those who die in Gielinor are ferried to their final resting place within the underworld.

The idea of the Grim Underworld contradicts some of those already put forth by other sources, suggesting that only some are taken there, while others appear to travel to another destination.

The Demon butler Alathazdrar claims to have once served as a ferryman in the Grim Underworld, but left to pursue other interests in Gielinor and the Infernal Dimensions (currently, Alathazdrar is a butler). This suggests that the Grim Underworld is not necessarily impossible to enter or leave at will.

Trivia

• The Grim Underworld is similar to, if not the same as, Hades in Greek Mythology. The reference of Alathazdrar is similar to Charon and the ferry refers to the boat that Charon uses to ship others across the River Styx.
