Fiction:Vanara/Religion/Afterlife

Overview
When a Vanara dies it is believed that their soul must cross the Thanatos. Thanatos is a endless expanse of pure Destrude, Thanatos constantly attempts to drag those who cross it down by revealing all their weaknesses, failings, and insecurities in order to destroy their will to live. If it is successful the individual sinks into Thanatos and become without their own shape, an ambiguous world where it is impossible to tell where one end and others begin, a fragile world where one exists everywhere, and thus exist nowhere. This is what the Vanara regard as hell. However a individual can escape the sea's grasp if they regain the will to live or if they are freed by another who is crossing the sea, also one does not need to cross the sea alone and can cross with as many companions as they can find. If one retains the will to live they will reach Eros. Eros is a island that sits at the center of Thanatos, here a individual is reunited with all their loved ones and given a life of eternal peace and happiness.

Thanatos
Thanatos is the wellspring of all Destrudo in the universe, the very source of all destructive urges and desires. A hellish expanse, Thanatos seeks to amplify a individuals Despair and destroy their Integrity in order to make them without their own shape, an ambiguous world where it is impossible to tell where one end and others begin, a fragile world where one exists everywhere, and thus exist nowhere. While Thanatos takes on a physical shape and unique geography this is a lie engineered by Thanatos for the purpose of destroying the individual. The false geography of Thanatos takes on the forms of four realms which constantly switch positions with themselves. There are also many creatures called Wastelings native each region, but these are also only the sensory lies of Thanatos. if one could see the true nature of Thanatos one would see nothing, for in a world of destruction without creation nothing could ever had existed at all.

Realm of Violence
This realm is the incarnation of individual violence towards others. It is surrounded by an immense ring of fire that burns at those who attempt to go through it, within these flames lay twisted black forges where creation is destroyed and made into nothing by Wastelings. The landscape within is pot mark with pits of Thanatos true nature, massive holes of nothingness and intersected by rivers of the same all emptying into a massive lake of nothing. At the center of this lake rise a massive twisted fortress swarming with Wastelings and at the heart of the fortress... a massive pile of bodies that seams to rise for eternity. The wastelings of this realm are blood thirsty demonic beasts which viciously attack anything that enters the realm and often times each other.
