The final circle is literally Hell frozen over. Here one will encounter the frozen giants of old, who attempt to kill the player with their icy breath. Before Lake Cocytus is a crumbling ice bridge, and the final chain of Judecca.
■In the "Divine Comedy", the ninth Circle of Hell is ringed by Biblical and Classical Giants. Nimrod (who wasn't actually a giant in Biblical stories), Ephialtes (who with his brother Otus tried to storm Mount Olympus during the Gigantomachy), and Antaeus (who lowers Dante and Virgil into the ninth Circle of Hell) are found here. Briareus, Tityos, and Typhon were also mentioned to be here as well. There are four concentric zones (or "rounds") in the ninth Circle of Hell: ■Round 1 is named Caina after Cain (who murdered his brother Abel). Those that are condemned here are up to their faces in ice.
■Round 2 is named Antenora after Antenor (who betrayed Troy to the Greeks). Dante encounters Count Ugolino here. ■Round 3 is named Ptolomea after Ptolomy: Son of Abubis (who invited Simon Maccabaeus and his sons to a banquet and then killed them). Those that are condemned here lie supine in the ice that covers everything except for their faces. ■Round 4 is named Judecca after Judas Iscariot (who betrayed Jesus Christ). All of the sinners punished within are completely encapsulated in ice, distorted in all conceivable positions. Due to no one to talk to here, Dante and Virgil moved on to the center of the ninth Circle of Hell. ■At the center of the ninth Circle of Hell depicts Satan as a giant terrifying beast with six wings and three faces (one red, one black, and one a pale yellow). Satan is waist deep in ice. His right and left head gnawed on Cassius and Brutus (who were involved in the murder of Julius Caesar) feet first in those mouths. In the central most vicious mouth is Judas Iscariot. Judas is being administered the most horrifying torture of the three traitors: his head gnawed by Satan's mouth and his back being forever skinned by Satan's claws.
Giants
Nimrod He rests in his icy prison alongside the other giants of old, Ephialtes and Antaeus. His icy breath will try to keep Dante with them for eternity.
Ephiates Ephialtes is one of the ice giants imprisoned in the circle of Treachery. He, like the other giants, attempt to use their frozen breath to stop Dante from reaching Lucifer.
Antaeus For his sins, he was condemned to the ninth circle of hell. There he is imprisoned in the ice alongside the other giants of old, who try to hinder Dante on his journey. His frozen breath keeps the souls of the damned imprisoned with him.
