Titanic monsters lurk there- mythic versions of their average fellows. It is rumored that a powerful evil being is imprisoned on this layer. Any thoughts or opinions or cool ideas regarding this?

Imagine a hydra, now imagine it scores larger. A creature of nightmare I assure you." "It seems that back in the dim past, the guardinals came across the beast somewhere in the lower planes. They always had the habit of running forays into my home and pestering the fiends, all types." "Well, they figured they couldn't allow such a creature of evil exist. And headstrong and foolish they tried to slay the beast. They paid for their efforts in blood. Tens of thousands of the celestials perished and the great serpent was but nicked and angered." *sips from a glass of firewine* "Unable to slay the Mother of Serpents, they instead lured it and trapped it within the third layer of Elysium, that which was least populated. And there they wove spells of such strength and power it even yet impresses me." "They girded the layer and shrouded it from divinations and sealed those portals into the plane from most every source. Only a scant few remained, and those that did became one way only, leading into the layer, but never back out." "The beast raged across the layer in fury, but was direly pained by the waters of Oceanus, by whose transit was the only way free of the layer. And there it was trapped." "The guardinals yet to this day maintain vigil over the layer, and over the great beast from the fortress of Rubicon situated on an island surrounded by the waters of Oceanus." "But woe to them should it ever find itself free to ravage the other layers of Elysium. The shame of the guardinals, allowing such a beast to exist and live free upon the plane of ultimate good." "Don't trust the word of this fiend? Go there and see it for yourself. I assure you, it is impressive even contained and imprisoned." *smiles yet again over the lip of the wineglass*
