Debeskalns

General Information
A rather odd mountain floating in the sky above the Baltic Sea. "Debeskalns" literally means "Mountain of Souls", and it is quite a fitting name. It is a destination for recently-dead souls to reach Heaven, at least in Eastern Europe. The mountain itself is snow- and ice-covered, blue, and as smooth as glass, and to reach this regional part of Heaven, one must ascend it with tools passed on by relatives of the recently deceased, or possess enough magical prowess to ascend without climbing. The massive Dubovoye Derevo, the residence of the gods of this part of Heaven, will grace the view of anyone who makes it to the top. Aside from the enormous World Tree, a pine forest full of forlorn spirits exists around the mountain.

Residents
There are many forlorn souls around the Debeskalns, often failing to ascend its peaks or in the process of climbing it.This is why the goddess Laima is there to take care of them, to prevent them from going off too far. An iron and wood settlement can be seen near its bottom, which is where the Lönnrot family lives. Garmē Āutrās can often be seen at the top of this residence, monitoring the population of shamans and native magicians in the outside.

Entry Requirements
There exists a number of ways to reach the Debeskalns. The most straightforward way is to die (maybe accompanied by a burial of burning you and your worldly goods - this will increase your chances of climbing the mountain successfully) in Eastern Europe, and be judged by Veles such that you go to Heaven. In this instance, you will only reach the mountain if your ancestors have provided a ritual burial for you. Or, you might be able to reach it if you were spiritually aware and could fly high enough. Don't expect to be allowed to climb the mountain, though - Laima might become rather irked by your presence if you arrive on a whim or have not earned in your life!
