The Isles of the Blest (or the Fortunate Isles) are a group of three islands in the center of Elysium, surrounded by artificial sunlight. It is reserved for those who, upon entering the Underworld, are judged and return to Elysium multiple times. They are thought to be the equivalent of islands on the western edge of the Earth, with continuous sunlight. Few people make it to the Isles, as many choose to stay in the pleasant Elysium, rather than risk rebirth. It is thought the greatest of Greek mythology would reside here, such as Achilles and other great Heroes.
