	After the destruction of the River Styx and the death of Charon in 925 [[PR]], it became more difficult for souls to pass on from the Ethereal Plane. Over time this caused the Ethereal Plane to overflow with lost souls, thinning the barriers between the spirit and mortal realms. This was only exacerbated by the presence of the banished goddess, [[Othea\|the Shattered Mountain]], which had been ejected into the Ethereal Plane after being freed out from under the River Styx. In early 926 PR this would cause the Ethereal Plane to rupture, expelling these lost spirits across the Material Plane and the lower realms. These lost spirits lashed out, confused and scared, causing destruction wherever they went.

	The rupture was eventually fixed by the efforts of an adventuring party known as [[the Hellraisers]]. First they created the Passage of Souls to replace the River Styx, reconnecting the Ethereal Plane to the planes of the afterlives. This new passage would be overseen by [[Aliria Servine]], who would guide newly dead souls across the Obsidian Bridge to their final resting places, taking up the role Charon left behind. The souls that had been expelled from the Ethereal Plane were then funneled back into it by the druid [[Endine di Valpadana\|~~'''~~Endine (Dina) di Valpadana~~'''~~]]. Taking up the Curse of the Scapegoat, Dina became a vessel that the spirits could pass through to enter into the Ethereal Plane, pulling back all the lost spirits.

			When a mortal dies, their soul passes into the Ethereal Plane where it can be taken by a [[psychopomp]] to their destined afterlife. Some of the most notable psychopomps include the death goddess [[Silent]], and even more so, the ferryman [[Charon]]. Charon oversees [[the River Styx]] which connects together all the planes of Quelmar and serves as a highway for souls leaving the Ethereal Plane.
