"Yes, my lord," the Dullahan replied. "The underworld is mostly like this, though there are some areas we cannot venture into because of the demons. The church has managed to connect all regions of the underworld using gates."
"Gates?" Karl asked, the word sounding strangely mundane in this fantastical setting.
"Yes, my lord. Though this region is quite small, each region has its own gate that is connected to the main region, bypassing the normal means of using ancient demonic machines that are far older and more dangerous. These gates act as bridges that transport denizens from one place to another, allowing for trade and travel across the entire underworld."
Karl's mind pieced together the vague explanation. "Ahhh... so, portals. And what exactly are these 'regions'? Are they floors or just areas of a specific floor?"
