- "Elevator 666 departing for Lust in five minutes."
- ―Elevator intercom
The elevator is a mode of transportation for Hellborn Demons in Hell to traverse the Seven Rings.
Description[]
The elevator is a structure of unknown size that facilitates the transportation of demons from one ring of hell to another. The structure is constructed with a golden aesthetic throughout, with the entire structure seemingly being maintained to a high standard, with no evidence of damage or decay.
Transportation is arranged by the presence of oversized elevators. The arrival and departure of these lifts are announced by a public intercom system, with digital displays throughout the elevator structure displaying the arrival and departure times of the aforementioned elevators. Each displayed location on the displays is color-coded with the corresponding ring of hell that is the intended destination.
Each elevator is a large space with an array of standing spaces and lounge-style chairs, allowing passengers to sit and rest while in transit.
It is unknown if this elevator system is a luxury, private, or public transport system, if alternative transport methods are available, or if the system allows for cargo or other personal effects.
No sinners are witnessed being within the premises of the elevator structure, only hellborn species such as imps have been witnessed inside the structure. It is unknown if sinners are prevented from gaining access to the structure through some form of magic or physical security systems.
