Hellish abode damning every soul from their inception (5)
I believe the answer is:
hades
But I can't explain it at all! Could you help me understand?
(Other definitions for hades that I've seen before include "Greek underworld with spirits of the dead" , "Home of the souls of the dead" , "Greek god of the underworld" , "Infernal situation" , "gloomy place" .)
