Lethe
“Following a process of exhaustive testing, a creation deemed unsuitable for release into the world is brought to this lake, where its life energies are magically unbound and allowed to dissipate. It is at once the most beautiful as well as the most sorrowful locale in Elpis.
Lethe is a landmark in Misopses Euros, Elpis.
Additional Information
Lethe is a lake filled with life energies that have the power to unmake creations. When observers deem a creation a threat to the planet and unsuitable for life on Etheirys, they are brought here. As such, the area is filled with various threatening creatures that have not yet dissipated.[1][2]
In ancient Greek, Lethe translates to forgetfulness and oblivion.[3] While in Greek mythology, Lethe is one of the rivers of the underworld. Its name is derived from the daimona of forgetfulness and the personification of oblivion. The shades of the dead were forced to drink from the waters of Lethe in order to forget their mortal lives.[4][5][6]
