Editor notes (2)
The connections to Judeo-Christian mythology are thin, but it was apparently the author's intent to make this connection. The author planed to include much more content referencing Dante's Inferno. For example, there were originally 9 levels, not 3. There were also plans for many more characters and the player participating in their conflicts. There was supposed to be an alignment system that interplayed with conflicts. The dialog in the game clearly indicates all of this.
