Sharadan

Sharadan is an Outer Realm that predates all other known domains. Unlike most Outer Realms, it's power isn't the result of a God or Higher Being, but seems to stem from Eregaia itself. The scant few who have visited Sharadan and returned speak of its role as a prison for a great, unknown evil and the ghastly Ashaya who stands guard over the Tomb of Eternal Night.

Sharadan, despite its rigid and austere nature, has an almost primal aspect to its magic and function. It was designed to be a prison and a prison it is, once a mortal has entered Sharadan it is impossible to use artifacts or magic to leave. Though, Ashaya has been known to pity the mortals who become stranded there and offers to push them through the Veil at the cost of one living soul. How old Ashaya herself is, and what exactly she guards, is currently unknown.
