About the Heavens[]
Heaven is the realm whene the gods reside, and the final destination of the souls who died as moral and righteous beings. There is very little known about this mysterious realm other than is one of the two realms that is infinite and is the opposite of the Nertherrealm. It is an amalgamation of the East Asian and Christian concepts of Heaven. The realm can be accessed via soulnado. Scorpion's Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance ending says he was ripped apart by the purity of that realm, indicating that impure beings may be obliterated upon entering.

Relationships with other Realms[]
Obviously, the Heaven's biggest threat comes from the Netherrealm, its polar opposite. While it doesn't get mentioned much in the games, there are hints that it seems to be in neutral relationship with other Realms. As it is considered paradise by the denizens of Earthrealm, its citizens look upon it with favor.
