Geography[]
The Upper Layer of Stygia's Islands
The complete opposite of Phlegethos, Stygia is either a near-bottomless ocean a frozen sea salted with huge icebergs of buried in a cavern several miles/kilometers below Dis and hundreds of miles/kilometers away from fiery Phlegethos depending on which cosmological model was in vogue at the time.
The older model also suggested the world was originally supported to be small but hardy plants and mosses which, after millennium of evolution that of fully grown islands modeled along with the island of ice floating around. It has scattered islands along the outer-layer of this realm however the islands are ruled by the savage tribe versions of devils lack worship there ruler like a god. Along each of the islands leads a tunnel deeper down through a mountain heading down into the depths of the sixth plane of hell Malbolge The Plane of Envy leading down from a large landmass of a mountain.
Stygia's Tribal Settlement
A few floating islands were the only non-frozen ground in Stygia, their peaks wreathed in lightning arcing from the coal-black sky. Where lightning struck, a strange phenomenon called "cold fire" erupted: white flames of extreme cold that "burned" for a short time and then disappeared without a trace.
The great city of Tantlin was built upon one of these islands, in the curve of the large merciless ocean Styx, or perhaps on a giant ice floe. Due to the proximity of the Styx, Tantlin was a cross-planar trading post for those brave enough to attempt navigating the treacherous rivers and seas. Mera Guna is a kingdom deep underworld where the lord of sloth sleeps and rests in his kingdom under the massive ocean protected by his massive beasts and fellow servants with growing green rocks along the castle walls and fortress with dark black water flowing around however when entering the castle, it has a bubble-like entry way which can lead into the ocean or a dry kingdom underwater through magic.
