And the Underworld has gods and stuff just like Creation, except goth. And when you die in the Underworld, you get reincarnated. The Underworld stands square in the way of souls headed for Lethe, so without supernatural assistance everybody becomes a ghost. And since starmetal is made out of dead gods, hexsteel is made out of dead dead gods. Little complicated.
