Consisting of nothing but a solid sea of black ice, a frozen pearl formed from the endless streams pouring from the tunnels to [[Porphatys]], Agathys the Ice-Bound is the deepest of Carceri's layers. Here, the orbs are so distant that not even a glimmer of light from the nearest can be seen, the sky consisting of nothing but an undifferentiated expanse of red.
