Calderón City is a mysterious city located in the Underworld.

Most high-level creatures in the spirit world are unaware of the mystical coordinates of this City. Due to special reasons, the Seven Lights are prohibited from entering the City. Reinette Tinekerr also stated that she could not enter the City.

When living creatures enter Calderón City, they will naturally transform into the deceased and directly turn into dead spirits. This transformation will automatically recover after leaving alive.

Appearance

A grand city that spiraled deep into the ground. It gave one the feeling of an inverted mausoleum.

At the bottom of the pit was a huge, black palace that stood in the way. Inside the palace has a staircase that directly leads to the distributary of the River of Eternal Darkness.

Origin

The name ‘Calderón’ originates from the Abraham Family’s angel, the first person who stepped in. In the Language of the Dead, it means ‘Unknown Soul’.

According to Arrodes, its former name was the City of the Dead. It was a grounded Divine Kingdom of the ancient goddess, Phoenix Ancestor Gregrace. Ever since Gregrace opened up the Underworld, ‘Her’ divine kingdom was moved there. The City of the Dead gradually became the holy grounds of ‘Her’ descendants and believers.

Later, Gregrace was heavily injured by the Ancient Sun God and had the city uprooted and thrown deep into the spirit world. None of its citizens ever came out again. ‘She’ wished to revive 'Herself' using this City of the Dead, but ‘She’ failed completely and the authority was taken by Salinger.

According to Red Light Aiur Moria, the setup left by the ancient goddess underwent an anomaly after ‘Her’ failure.

A saint had perished in there before. Certain angels, Travelers, and spirit world creatures had once explored the City and left it alive in a relatively smooth manner, but none of them got much out of it.

Rumor has it that deep in the City, there are clues to one of the Sefirot, the River of Eternal Darkness. This was later confirmed by the Evernight Goddess when "She" requested for the water from the River of Eternal Darkness to aid Klein's ritual to accommodate the Fool’s Uniqueness.
