Blood boils. Flesh melts. Voices screech out. All these events can only happen in one place, Hell. A different realm, structured in four distinct layers, each with its own purpose of eternal torment for their former sinners.
The first layer, Limbo, can be described as nothing but a gigantic wasteland, with nothing but a gray rock floor and a white sky stained by black spots. Filled with random mountains of rock featuring various sizes, it is home to the souls of people who had a balance between good and evil deeds, their souls lingering around in a blue humanoid shape, unable to remember their past properly, nor care about the future of their eternity. Once a mortal enters this layer, the layer will try to destroy their mental fortitude. Only the strong willed will survive its effects.
The second layer, commonly known as “The Trail”, has to be accessed through direct teleportation, as the entrance from Limbo was sealed a long time ago. This layer features a sea of lava and stone pillars connected by wooden bridges. This zone is covered in thick smoke caused by the lava, alongside the intense nauseating heat. Not only that, it's home to a species of large size demon bats, which will attempt to knock anyone off the bridges connecting the stone pillars for pure amusement. Once fallen into lava, the bodies will suffer eternal torment, forever bathing in pain and lava, never to enjoy the sweet release of death.
Within the second layer, Iulia had her own cave where she created her own small base in order to plan future attacks. Orange was nothing but a tool for her, as she used him to send out messages to her allies. Orange returns once more. He takes a great leap off a bridge, onto a demon bat's head then right into the cave safely. He walks through the wide dug out hallway, finding himself in the large mined cave, decorated after Iulia's preferences and her messy lifestyle. Books and clothes being just about everywhere on the floor. In the middle of the room there was a throne in crimson and black colors, which you'd have to climb 6 stairs in order to sit on. Iulia was searching for something in one of her piles of things when Orange had arrived.
“Argh, fucking bitch of a pile…” she quickly notices Orange than jumps a little. “Ooh! Why don't you fucking say anything?! You just walk in here like a ghost!” said Iulia, angered.
Orange, used to her overreacting to everything, says nothing. Iulia takes a nice leap and lands on her throne. She crosses her legs and rests her arms on the arms of the throne, not before leaning her head onto her fist.
“So, what's up with you?” asked Iulia.
Orange bows his head down and closes his eyes before speaking. “It is time, master. Time for us to begin our plan”.
Iulia rolls her eyes. “Ugh, I'm still pissed off about that black element thing guy. We paid him good money to do one job. He had one job and he got beaten up by literal children” she nods her head dismissively “Disgraceful” she looks once more at Orange “Will you disappoint me just as much?” but before Orange could open his mouth again she instantly replies “Of course you will, you're never good at doing your job, just look at your shoulder” said Iulia, pointing out the injury Orange suffered 2 years ago, which he was never able to heal due to him being a soul plastered on a vessel of dirt. Orange, with sad eyes, tries to say “I'm…” but Iulia talks over him nonetheless “You're useless, make yourself useful” Orange looks away, slightly ashamed “Yes… master…” said Orange before going out of the cave. Iulia rolls her eyes, visibly annoyed at the incompetence she believes Orange has “You're gonna die one day and I won't feel bad about it” said Iulia to herself as Orange walked away.

Right as Orange stepped close to the edge of the cave, 4 demon bats came to avenge the humiliation Orange gave to their friend. Orange frowns and instantly jumps on the third one of them, as they are lined one next to each other. He grabs it by the throat, not caring if it's the size of his body, then slams it down onto a pillar as he lands on it. He chokes it down to the ground then pins it down with his foot. He then grabs its head with both of his hands and starts pulling hard. The other 3 bats come to try and save their friend. Orange quickly notices and lets go of the bat's head. He turns around and punches the first bat charging at him right in the face, staggering it on the ground severely as it was trembling from pain. The other 2 bats followed up. Orange dodged the first one but grabbed the second one, slamming it down right next to the one he was still pressing his food on its throat. Tired of their weakness, he grabs its wings and rips a piece out of each, making it unable to fly. He does the same for the other bat as well. He grabs both of them by their heads and throws them into the lava. He gives a sharp look at the other 2 bats, which quickly fly away cowardly.
Orange calms down after executing the 2 bats. He pulls out a crystal out of his pocket, holds it between 2 of his fingers and raises his hand up, inspecting it. He then throws it on the ground, shattering it instantly, which creates a portal on the ground. He stares down at the portal with a depressed look. Sighing deeply, he pulls out even more crystals out of his pockets and throws them in every direction at great distances, the shards popping into portals around the entire layer. Orange rushes over to the end of the layer, leaping from pillar to pillar as he sometimes threw more crystals around. Once he reached the end of layer 2, he was at the entrance of the third layer, the “Vein Castle”, which can only be described as an endlessly deep torture dungeon under the skin of a gorgeous, stunning, majestic palace. He pushes the gigantic steel doors, decorated with a beautiful model of roses. The main color scheme of the entire palace was gray and red, usual colors for Hell itself. Once in, he instantly locked eyes with Minotaurs who wielded war axes. They were the “guards” of the dungeon, making sure every sinner remained in their specific room, none being allowed to leave. They didn't mind Orange being there, as his body still had a living soul with a vessel. As he walks through the very long corridors, he closes his eyes, not willing to bat an eye to the torturous rooms from where screams of harsh agony and suffering happen. He drops crystals all around the place. He starts to speed up his pace, running around and throwing them anywhere. After a few minutes of running around, he finally runs out of crystals, so he jumps into one of the portals he created, as they all lead to the same place.
