There are many entrances to the Underworld. Sometimes it is an abandoned mine tunnel, sometimes a vast, bottomless pit, sometimes the trunk of a withered giant tree, or even a hillside structure that looks like a monster's head with tusk-like fangs.
The closest entrance to Muya City takes about five days' journey by carriage. This entrance is called the "Dazzling Staircase" because the indigenous inhabitants of the Underworld are dazzled by sunlight as they look up the stone steps leading to the surface.
No matter what, many of the original inhabitants who live in Muya City first arrived on the surface through the "Dazzling Staircase," giving up their old identities and starting new lives.
During the five-day journey, Bartlett and his companions will pass through a village of grey dwarfs, a small human town, and a mix of half-elven species city.
