Hub 1: Seven Portals

Seven Portals is the first hub of Hexen. Generally regarded as preparation for the rest of the game, in the context of the story it is referred to as a test. The hub's theme consists of distinct elemental realms, although aside from fire they do not correspond to the s.

Upon completion the Winnowing Hall and entering the hub proper, Korax issues his first taunt: "Greetings mortal, are you ready to die?"

There is no intermission text introducing this hub in the PC version.
