Death and Cultural Observances
Heartlands: Death and Cultural Observances reflect mostly burial. All souls must transit through The House of the Dead.
- The Saelish: The Salisnean culture does not follow the ancient Bronzemen culture of leaving their dead out for the wind, animals, and elements to strip the flesh off them. The Saelisnean people bury bodies, but have no head stones. The head of the grave is slightly raised and a rock is carved with a saying or remembrance. After a few hundred years, burials stop. Then, after a hundred years, the cemetery land is tilled for crops and the plaques are all moved to a single place to mark the presence of the dead giving back their nutrients to the living.
