Divinity: Original Sin II Update #10: Hall of Echoes Unlocked

The latest Divinity: Original Sin II Kickstarter update celebrates the unlocking of the $1.5 million stretch goal for the Hall of Heroes by explaining what it is via text:

What is the Hall of Echoes?

A mysterious realm between reality and the Void, the Hall of Echoes is called a heaven by some, a hell by others. Upon their deaths, all souls all drawn toward the Hall; those who resist remain on Rivellon as undead. Souls successfully pulled into the Hall naturally drift toward the Forge, where they will be reborn, or the Void, where they will be consumed. Those who remain in the Hall face a pleasant reality, perhaps indescribable to mortal sensibilities. They must decide, or drift, of their own accord toward the Forge or the Void.

One of its most unique features is its ability to shift, chameleon-like, to suit the needs and desires of its visitors. When your party is eventually invited to the Hall, you'll find that it may morph to suit your deepest desires, be they for a skill trader, a home for your companions, or perhaps a lost soul from your past.

What's more, rumors hold that the Hall holds not only a portal to the Void, but also the gateway to the Gods themselves. Long have the Seven reigned over Rivellon, but eons have passed since they allowed a mortal into their realm...


And a video, which also includes some highlights from some Divinity: Original Sin II promotional livestreams:


If you're getting the game's Collector's Edition you might also want to let Larian know whether you want the Ouija board included in it or something else. If, on the other hand, you intend to back the campaign but haven't done so yet, you might be glad to know that there is a Paypal option to contribute to it now.
