You can say "Hell," Sierra.  Firstly, it's a term that exists in the Redwall universe.  Secondly, it's not a curse word when used to describe a place.  Thirdly, I haven't heard anyone use "heck" since I was a child, and I am unused to it; when reading it, it throws me off of what is actually being said.

@Sierra: That makes sense for your signature.  I've used the word a handful of times (referring to the place), and it's never been altered or mentioned.

"Reserving judgments is a matter of infinite hope."

"'What was that?' said Seamus Finnigan, staring at the egg as Harry slammed it shut again. 'Sounded like a banshee.... Maybe you've got to get past one of those next, Harry!'
'It was someone being tortured!' said Neville, wh had gone very white and spilled sausage rolls all over the floor. 'You're going to have to fight the Cruciatus Curse!'
'Don't be a prat Neville, that's illegal,' said George. "They wouldn't use the Cruciatus Curse on the champions. I thought it sounded a bit like Percy singing.... maybe you've got to attack him while he's in the shower, Harry.'"

The only thing overdone here is my toast-Jontron

"I fight for the men I've held in my arms, dying on foreign soil. I fight for their wives and children, who's [sic] names I heard whispered in their last breaths. I fight for we few who did come home, only to find our country full of strangers wearing familiar faces. I fight for my people impoverished to pay the debts of an Empire too weak to rule them, yet brands them criminals for wanting to rule themselves! I fight so that all the fighting I've already done hasn't been for nothing. I fight... because I must."-Ulfric Stormcloak

Also relized that posted a similer topic in the cellars recently, :-[

I am the harbinger of the spicy rooster apocalypse,
I am the hydrogen bomb in a necktie,
I hold the flames of a thousand collapsed stars,
I am Bobracha!

I will take it! I will take the Ring to Mordor!
Though... I do not know the way.~Frodo

Pity? It was pity that stayed Bilbo's hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play yet, for good or ill before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many. ~Gandalf

Mordor, Gandalf, is it left or right?~Frodo
I am the harbinger of the spicy rooster apocalypse,
