There, you follow the path of water to monster-infested lava caves. In a huge hall, the giant door to the third level, "Temple of Hate", awaits. All maps are small/medium-sized. map01: "Entrance" map02: "Realm of Sakkath" map03: "Temple of Hate" If you find texture-errors, bugs, etc. please do not hesitate to contact me, so i can update the wad and others may benefit from.

Music                      : No (I recommend listening to dark ambient sounds for this wad,
