Hela’s Curse

Hela’s Curse: The Strange Horror Realm

The season is fought in the Strange Horror Realm, the cursed Strange City. Every Kingdom starts in its own starting area on the edge; the Palace of Despair sits at the center.

Do this
  1. Open Rules → Map Preview first. It shows your Kingdom's starting area and every other Kingdom's.
  2. Find your Team's other starting area. Your Team's two kingdoms start apart, with another Team's area between.
  3. Push toward the center through the Passes. A Pass is the only way from one area to the next.
  4. Build Flag Towers, not Forts, on another Kingdom's starting area. Only Tribe Flag Towers can go there.

The Map Preview

Its caption says that in the Strange Horror Realm each Kingdom has a starting area, and that Chiefs who relocate into the realm are teleported to their own Kingdom's starting area.

8
The eight starting areas as one run's Map Preview draws them: Inferno red, Boulder yellow, Torrent blue, Hollow green, two per Team, never side by side. The center ring is the level-8 Palace of Despair.
