Mm. [ i had to do research for this tag i hope you're happy ]
...As far as I've always known, what matters is setting their souls to rest so they don't rise as resentful spirits. This situation is dangerous enough, and to die in such a way.... doing this properly may help them move on, to wherever that might be.
[ he leans on his shovel for the moment, pausing thoughtfully. ] And then there's the matter of the Lady Zoe, who claimed she was a god... in my realm, gods who die don't reincarnate at all. I suppose the best we can do is inter the bodies, and... I think a memorial would be nice.
[ he finishes it a bit lamely, but it's true. ] Perhaps I can handle the burials, if you can handle the memorials. I don't mind the labor.
I do not mind taking charge of finding things for a suitable memorial, in that case.
[it would have been a little easier if they were in her homeworld. the funerary rites of the church of seiros would have laid most souls to rest, flayn is sure - but here? no one really seems to know who her Goddess even is. would the rites of a foreign religion do anything to bring their souls peace?
she wants to believe that the Goddess would watch over all of them, regardless. but if Zoe herself was a god, too... well. maybe that wouldn't work out so well.]
...thank you for your assistance, Yin Yu. It is very kind of you.
