The Second Circe of Hell, is a place of Stygian Darkness, where great winds churn the air as the mightiest storms do the sea and caught in this endless atmospheric holocaust are those souls who subjected reason and intellect to carnal desire. The winds drive all before them allowing no comfort, no rest. The best these people can hope for is to lessen their torment, and the pain it brings them. They will never be free of it. Each region of the circles of hell has it's own guardians who torture the souls trapped in it, the second was home to the Harpies.[1]
It is ruled by the famed Greek King; Minos who resides their in his palace now with a serpentine like form.[1]
