The Black Hel was an Outer Plane where the I.C.E. Age version of Eorgina was banished at the end of the Wars of Dominion. She had ruled her own pantheon there up until that point, with a theocracy on a volcanic isle in southwest Jontara in homage to her, which was run by Kadaena's daughter. It was a culture that embedded demons within weapons and other objects, which were unique races fashioned by their dark gods and could only be summoned with the indigenous language. The Black Hel was never explicitly referenced in GemStone III, and few references exist to that isle, however parts of The Graveyard were clearly based on its temple and Bandur Etrevion was contemporary with it.
