hekatecovenant: The Restless Dead are, generally, those who enter the Underworld but are unable to pay the fare to Charon and cross into the rest of the afterlife. They despondently, despairingly, wander the shores of the Acheron or Styx river, perhaps forever or perhaps only for 100 years. Others of the Restless Dead may be those who Hekate allows to temporarily leave Tartarus or other areas in the Underworld, as well as those who had untimely deaths or Heroes who died without a wife.Hekate is one who takes charge of these restless wandering souls. At night, especially the night of the dark moon, She leads the host of the Restless Dead to wander the paths of the Earth.
