Other points of interest[edit]
Secrets[edit]
- The three pillars past the red key bars lower when you step on them. Get onto the middle one, and as it is lowering (or rising), get into the northern alcove to get a berserk pack. (sector 54)
- In the area with the soul sphere on the pole (see Secret #3 for how to reach it) use the switch just north of the pole, which will lower a column to the southwest revealing a switch. Get to that switch, but go around the backside to see another switch. Use that side, then quickly enter the alcove to the east to teleport to an area with health bonuses and a switch. The switch will crush the arch-vile behind the cage, allowing you to kill the imps near the red key bars without them being resurrected. (sector 140)
- When you open up the four-directional teleporter, take the side with the "?" on it to get the soul sphere. (sector 145)

Inspiration and development[edit]
The map was inspired by the song "March of the Fire Ants" by Mastodon, to which the creator listened for four hours straight when making the initial map.
