•Sartosa, the location of the underground

Yes, I am redoing the underground’s location. Dark lands was honestly a swing and a miss and looking back it makes no sense geographically.

Sartosa is my favorite location in all of Warhammer. A warm Mediterranean pirate republic island right under the nose of Tilea. Here I’ll be using evidence that this place is Sartosa in the distant future, over 201X years after the end times fail. It’s rarely mentioned in discussion outside of the lore of Undertale but it seems the underground is near the ocean relatively speaking.

•Evidence we see underground

First, we see the pirate flag that Papyrus mentions that it was found in the bay. Its the weathered generic skull and crossbones, which can imply a pirate presence in that area in the past.

Our second is when we meet Onionsan in waterfall. Obviously represents a stylized version of krakens and giant tentacled beasts. Sartosa’s nearby waters have a type of kraken that live within that area. And with the sea caves of the island, it’s no surprise one of which may have ended up there.

Next evidence is the pacifist run ending, where in the ending, we see Frisk and the others looking at the surface, and in the distance what possibly could be the sea. When Alphys and Undyne are dating, the location is at the beach.

•Surface evidence

The mountain Frisk falls into in is Mt Ebott. Geographically if you look at the map of Sartosa, Mount Ertinia lines up pretty accurately with where the top of Mt Ebott stands. On top of that the view we get shows a city off in the distance and a mountain next to it.

Mount Ertinia is a volcano which is mostly dormant from what we see of it. Same with Mt Ebott which isn’t erupting but still has lava beneath from what we see in Hotland. I’m thinking over time the name of it could’ve changed.

The underground obviously has more than one entrance and exits. Just like sartosa which is full of caves and caverns.

•Architectural evidence

Long before the events of Undertale, long before the events of the End Times, and long before the Empire of Man’s founding we had another empire on the old world. The Reman empire it started in Tilea but spread through the entire continent. The pillars in the ruins look similar to the types of ruins we see around Sartosa and Tilea. Makes sense since Tilea was close to the pirate republic.

Lastly, there was a large Skaven population that used to live on that island, with its own separated Under-Empire known as “Under Sartosa” a large cavern where they had a presence. Here is an example of Skaven architecture that we can see in this image of Skavenblight. Believe it or not this is underground.

Bonus round, papyrus makes spaghetti which is a dish served in Tilea. Pasta is canon to warhammer fantasy.

In Warhammer Whackheller AU(or WH Whack, if you prefer it short), Archaon the Everchosen’s End Time attempt went utterly failed. Mallus (A.K.A. World-That-Was) stayed, as its civilizations, even ultraconservative Lizardmen, primitive Greenskins, and Norscans had developed in technologies and ideologies. However, situations remain gritty and grimdark. Yet it has some extra flavors of modern lifestyles, diplomacy(that lead to conflicts, or even wars),  and CAPITALISM!. Even in the realm of Chaos, it has turned like Hell from Vivziepop (Like, in Hazbin Hotel or Helluva Boss).

Humankind

Empire of Men: Among the religious conflicts between Sigmarite and Ulrican, there was an Empress (thanks to her dad having no son) who came up with a compromise; Sigmar is Ulric’s reincarnation, and both teachings are acceptable. Plus, she made the reformation of the new faith, calling it ‘Reikite Temple’. 

The College of magic and Engineer Guild, meanwhile, had competitions for who would lead the Empire's future. The Empress and a few monarchs after her just threw money on both to accelerate the advances. The Recent Emperor; Salmeul, decided to dissolve both and form several Imperial centric versions of them instead. 

Bretonnia: Due to Peasants’ uprisings, with a random clergy ‘went Martin Luther’; he made another sect of Lady of The Lake where everyone equally received blessings from their version of ‘the lady’. Situations ended up with the first ruling Queen’s compromising, allowing females to be knighted, and less seats for the noble families’ knights for “granted peasant knights”. Ideology of “Lady of Ocean” is the new popularity for its larger water body for all lives. Plus, allowing progressive and favoring exploration of sciences and expedition. However, it is still slow and behind most of the other humans’ nations. However, it is the only country with large numbers of knights with firearms and armors.(Maybe everybody else has better units?)   

Marienburg/Westerland: The conservative Knights of Bretonnia, Dissolved Figures from Empire, and even some other humans who prefer the old ideologies went there. However, it eventually became a kind of semi-autonomous state where the Empire, Bretonnia, and Kislev use it for being their docks, factories, and warehouses. It is an even juicier target for Norscan, yet, the investors also put some forces prepared to protect their goods.

Kislev: Kislev remains hardened, yet, they allow more freedoms and liberty, as long as they have more soldiers for their defense against different foes(Ogres, Vampires, Skaven, and Chaos). Some of them are feminism, transgenderism, same-sex marriages, adopting orphans encouragement, and acceptance of more immigrants with standard. That causes the social dividation into three sides; Conservative, Hardened Socialist, and Armed Liberals. 

Conservatives stirred conflicts between the latter two, so they can stay without them overthrowing their older power.

Tilea: After Emperor Salmeul of Empire dissolved the Engineer Guild and College of Magic, large numbers of its engineers and magicians migrated to the Southern realms(Tilea, Estalia and Border Prince Confederacy). Tilea itself was focused on expanding their colonies rather than its own mainland. Such a decision caused Tilean’s governments to be more controlled by the Empire migrated scholars who were against the new Emperor. The merchant princes and mercenaries were mostly forced to pick their sides; Pro-Old Power, Pro-Empire Descents, or even join the rising Empire. 

The war ended with the victory of Pro-Empire “Usurper”, forming a federation of Tilea. It was considered by remnants of Tilean powers, who fled to different colonies as “The False Rulers”. The scattering or Tilean powers led to the formation of the “Tilean Commonwealth”, with its Headquarter around the Northwest Southland. 

Estalia: Being invaded by Skavens, Sartosan Pirates, and Greenskins, Estalia had suffered both politically and economically. Most kingdoms had fallen, or accepted to join Tilea or Bretonnia’s causes. One of the remnant kingdoms, Nerja, miraculously defended its kingdom from combined forces of Skavens and Norscans. Its king claimed to accept the new church based on the Four Gods; Solkan, Allumnias, Astasis, and Daora. The King believed these four deities could counter the power of chaos, and being its holy version. 

However, the temple itself was made centuries ago as a smaller sect which some might consider heretical. Somehow, with the victory mentioned, as few more afters, the belief spread among southern realms. Eventually, Nerja reclaimed most of its lost regions, forming a loose form of federated kingdoms under Nerja as its main seat.(Like England in the UK).

Border Prince Confederacy: Due to political shifts, Border Prince Confederacy had mostly divided into subjugation of its borders. Some even joined dwarves to be smaller parts of their nations. The remaining power moved downward to Badland, where they fought with the local Greenskins and smaller weaker Dwarven Holds. Seeing the benefits of the situations, the High Elves aided them with magic and political favors. Some of the High Elves even embrace its technology somehow, and become part of the new Border Prince Confederacy after being banished by Ulthuan. They are still unstable, and somehow unrecognized. Yet, they are a real domain to be respected.
