Hell (Helheim or Hel in Norse Mythology) is one of the nine worlds of the universe and the dimension who welcomes the dead. It is governed by Helda, the Norse Goddess of Death, but it appears that some Angels have some authority on this dimension as well (Lucifer, Azrael and Araquiel being the three most obvious).
This dimension is composed of nine circles, and the deeper you get into the land, the more your soul is lost forever. Behind the second circle of Hell, the soul of a deceased person belongs to Helda - and there is no way you can escape, unless someone calls upon the Orpheus Amendment.
