Rings of Hell

The Rings of Hell are the seven different Rings that makeup Hell's geography.



Description
As stated in the lyrics of "You Will Be Ok", Hell is divided into seven levels on top of each other, each referred to as a "ring". The top-most ring is the Pride Ring, where Sinners are confined to. However, Hellborn Demons are able to freely traverse all the Rings in Hell.

The rings that have appeared, so far, are the Pride, Greed, Wrath, and Lust Rings. As revealed in "Ozzie's", Demons traverse the Rings by an elevator transport system. Whether the Sinners are not allowed to use the elevators because of Hell's law or if they physically can not do so is still unknown.

The names of these Rings share the same names as the infamous.

Known Rings

 * First Ring: Pride
 * Second Ring: Wrath

Trivia

 * The concept of the Seven Rings dividing Hell is likely based on the nine circles (or Rings) of Hell defined in Dante Alighieri's The Divine Comedy. However, the seven rings have attributes that are not present in the Nine Circles such as Pride, a cardinal sin, although four of the seven sins — Greed, Gluttony, Lust, and Wrath — are present in the Nine Circles Cosmology.
 * While it has been stated in the series there are seven Rings, the Nine Circles theme was briefly addressed by Vivienne in a stream. Curiously, Katie Killjoy references the Nine Circles in the pilot episode, making it unclear if this is a continuity error or a detail that has been retconned. According to Faustisse, Hell is not literally broken into nine levels, although Vivienne initially thought of entertaining the concept.
 * In "Ozzie's", it is shown on a billboard that Imp City is located in the "second circle", however, Sinners, who are unable to leave the Pride ring, are seen in Imp City as well as in the I.M.P headquarters. Whether this is a continuity error or a retcon to the restriction is unknown, although it could allude to there existing both the "Seven Rings of Hell" and the "Nine Circles of Hell".
 * The sin naming pattern is incidentally part of demon class of the same name in Hell, thus implying an association between the two concepts.
 * In the elevator system, each ring has a designated color that coincidentally matches the colors of their respective skies:
 * Pride: Red
 * Wrath: Orange
 * Lust: Blue
 * Envy: Purple
 * Sloth: Pink
 * Greed: Green
 * Gluttony: Yellow
 * The colors of the seven Rings are intentionally based on a rainbow.
 * In "Ozzie's", one of the apps on Blitzo's phone titled "MAPS" shows seven rings, each with a different color, the same colors as the seven jewels and the monitors in the elevator terminal, both in the order of a rainbow. The elevator screen shows five of the Rings and their respective color.
 * Out of the seven rings, only six have been mentioned. While the seventh ring is still unknown, based on the sin naming pattern, it likely to be the Gluttony Ring.
 * A shirt of Verosika Mayday's tour in the official SharkRobot merchandise potentially suggests (albeit unconfirmed) several locations in the rings: Los Satanio for Wrath, Beelzehaven for Gluttony, Mint City for Greed, Crystal Stadium for Lust, Levitowne for Envy, and Dreamsville for Sloth.
 * The places for Wrath, Gluttony and Envy all have names that include those of the real-life Princes of Hell: Satan, Beelzebub, and Leviathan respectively.
