However, she grew cynical and, over the centuries, lost her way and became the gangly skeleton. She thought if she could quantify a person's worthiness, it would make things simple. She developed the system of coins to remove emotion from the equation. Lynn explains that after her heart went numb, she tried to keep caring about all the souls, but after a while, she heard so many sob stories, everyone's reasons and excuses became overwhelming. If they could help them get over their spiritual damage, then they too would get a coin. He also discovered that helping lost souls reach Peace was another avenue to atone and believe most people were stuck in Limbo as a result of parents, sex, or God. For example, Landon mused that the three jars between him, Alaric and the Necromancer, needed a few thousand coins to give to the Ferryman. This is represented in the form of various sized jars that a person may have to fill with coins. In other instances, some people are required to atone for a greater degree of misdeeds. Once this has happened, a gold coin is presented to the person where they can then present it to the Ferryman. This is typically in the form of making amends with someone you've wronged and either been forgiven or accepting another person's apology.
Once you've done that, the boat to Peace awaits. Landon theorizes that the whole point of Limbo is to atone for the mistakes of your life. Similarly, it is assumed that Ancestral spirits would linger here as well before being consecrated to the Earth and joining the Ancestral Plane. After the Other Side's destruction, spirits would temporarily linger within the plane before being violently sucked into Hell. In one notable instance, Katherine while in Limbo was not permitted access to the Other Side and was instead dragged into Hell. Prior to the destruction of the Other Side, spirits would briefly appear to the Anchor and pass through them. Spirits of the recently deceased typically appear on this plane of existence momentarily before moving on to their intended Afterlife. At least in regards to humans, those in coma can also slip into Limbo, though they remain physically alive.
While some parts of Limbo seem desolate, others places, such as Mystic Falls, is teeming with scores of lost souls, both human and supernatural alike. By all appearances, it reflects the natural world devoid of the living and the sun never rises. Limbo is a purgatory-like plane of existence, just out of reach of Peace. After pitying them, Lynn began ferrying them to Peace and for that she was cursed by Ken to do it for all eternity, never to return home and becoming the embodiment of the Ferryman. After Ken and the other gods crossed over from Peace into the mortal world, more and more humans started arriving in Limbo. The creation of Limbo remains unexplored however, it has existed alongside of Peace for a period over of ten thousand years.
