The Lake of the Dead was a large lake in central Nosgoth that lay south of the Oracle's Cave and Malek's Bastion, north of the Pillars of Nosgoth and the Sanctuary of the Clans, and on the northern edge of the Termogent Forest. The Lake was featured in Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain and Soul Reaver where it was seen in two different eras - the latter of which showed its erosion and collapse into a whirlpool known as the Abyss.
