Kladhaal - The Crossroads Realm The metaphysical place between Indaris and Xos, Kladhaal is home to the mighty Krondhir, Spirit of War and his Valkyries. At the center of this realm is a sprawling fortress of the same name, set upon war-beaten earth that spans the entire plane. The light of Ka reaches Kladhaal, but it is often clouded with the smoke from the eternal battling that occurs across this realm. Kladhaal is a place where spirits with no affiliation or an affiliation to the Spirit of War go, to be tested if their lives have walked a questionable line of morality.

These spirits are offered a choice

single combat with one of the Krondhirdottirs or step out onto the Eternal Battlefield and fight under one of the many Condemned Banners of fallen lords and ladies of the past that are locked in fatal combat. Those who win their day may pass onto the Bright Heavens, having earned their seat at Kaal's table. Those who fall are sent to Xos, where their soul becomes a larvae. Kladhaal is exceedingly dangerous to travel to, for the many and often chaotically overlapping battles going on at any given time. Once in Kladhaal citadel, one is generally safe…and treated to the sight of Krondhir's scantily clad Valkyries tending to one another's wounds, wrestling for sport, or sparring for Krondhir's amusement.
