This is the entrance to the Land of the Dead. It is marked by large, jagged rocks in the River of Night. It is guarded by Shezmu and those who wish to pass must speak his secret name.
The River of Night is every river and no river. It exists as a shadow of all the rivers in the world and is filled with red water. It traverses the Duat and has many branches and tributaries. In ancient times, Ra would travel through the river on his sunboat and bring light and warmth to the souls that could not find their way to the Hall of Judgment.
