Halls of Mandos
You stand in the Halls of Mandos which are larger than any mortal can grasp.
All mortal spirits are summoned here after their death yet the Halls never 
fill since they expand with time. The cavern walls are clad with tapestries 
woven by Vairë the Weaver which depict every event of the past and of the
future. A bowl containing a few drops of the pale dew of Telperion is the only
light source. The throne of Mandos can be seen in the largest cavern.
