Nadiria is the name of the evil underworld in Dragon Quest IV and V.
It is accessible only near the end of each game and contains the final dungeon and boss for each. It has its own world map which is typically much darker (and smaller) than the normal world map, providing habitation for ferocious monsters and freakishly bizarre flora.
Its counterpart is Zenithia, a castle in the sky that watches over the world of mortals.
