Requested Translation

I am making a game that has an entrance to the underworld, and I thought it’d be awesome to have an ancient greek inscription above it, saying the following:

“Here dwells Hades, the Lord of Death”

Thanks!!! :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

νεκρῶν κευθμὼν καὶ σκότου πύλαι, ἵν᾿ Ἅιδης χωρὶς ᾤκισται θεῶν.

νεκρῶν κευθμὼν καὶ σκότου πύλαι, ἵν᾿ Ἅιδης χωρὶς ᾤκισται θεῶν.

I think you need to adapt your Euripides a little bit more!

I thought it worked just fine without more adaptation than putting the first part into the nominative.

“Vault of corpses and [double-] gates of darkness, where Hades dwells apart from gods.”

Yes it does work well. I was just thinking of a “welcome to”. Anyway very ingenious. Well done
