Shadow Realm

The Shadow Realm is a mysterious location in Gielinor. Although it seems to be part of the world itself, it seems to be a different dimension.

The Shadow Realm is mentioned only in the Shadow Sword miniquest. During the miniquest, it is said that the Shadow Realm is a dimension in which the dead continue begin a new life, although the exact meaning of this is unclear. Whether or not all of the dead travel to this dimension is also unknown. The Realm itself condradicts many personal accounts and relgious beliefs, and thus its nature (and, to some extent, its existance) is questionable.

Those that exist in the Shadow Realm may still wander Gielinor as spirits, invisible to all that do not have a Ring of Visibility. Some may also, it seems, physically interact with their surroundings.
