In the Spirit Realm

The Spirit Realm in Ultima IX is supposed to represent the insides of the strangely regenerated Well of Souls.

Description[edit]

The Spirit Realm essentially is a pocket dimension in which the restless spirits of various people have been locked in, since they were unable to grasp the true meaning of a virtuous life but weren't outright evil to be forced to restlessly wander the real world. The Avatar had to enter it to free Shamino. In order to do so, the hero had to get hints from the restless spirits where to find the three items that were essential in freeing the companion from his magical separation of body and mind.

Inhabitants[edit]

Trivia[edit]

  • The whole concept with the Well of Souls being intact and the Spirit Realm directly contradicts Ultima VII, in which the Well is destroyed.
  • In the original plans, the hole made by the destroyed well would have led into the Catacombs of the Angry Dead.
