"That was my glass," Solomon grumbled, watching him move away and then return. "I did say I'd researched this, you know. But yes, that's why. The khajbit doesn't seem to be a place of death, but where other parts of the soul reside. That makes it a potential fourth plane otherwise missed or inaccessible to the average person in Keeliai."

Which made sense; by Bakura's own admission, the khajbit was a place that could only be accessed with magic or by extreme strength of soul. The Ring seemed to have something to do with it too, but for whatever reason, probably because of the whiskey, Solomon couldn't remember if Bakura had explained its connection to the khajbit in detail.

But at that, Solomon had to laugh. "Bakura isn't a man who needs rescuing from anything--except possibly himself."

Rather like Skulduggery, in fact. Idiots. Both of them, they were idiots.
