The dead divulged at sea's shore: bereft, they haunt night waters. Buried ashore, they would wake to death's work.

Rest rites elude them.

Some among you wield fire unending. Lend light. The rest may release candles, salt and incense at sea.

If we do nothing of righteousness here, let us achieve this. What of the other dead?

( ooc: won't someone think of Akira/Lily/Anduin's corpses???? Threadjack away, you've got this. )

I can lend my fire.

Gratitude. Seek candles.

Fire is no problem for me, but I know not the rites of these people. Do you mean to burn the bodies?

[ Clarity seems best. ]

( Burn the bodies, you savage???????? )

[downswing]

We do not defile the dead.

[downswing]

Rowed here, we stilled the dead with candles.

Let us set them fresh light.

What do you plan to do? I can use talismans for light, or hold a candle at the very least to help.

a........ udio, sorry daozhang

Our talisman light wanes. Cultivation may prove insufficient.

You are right, of course. Being so focused on trying to understand this place, I have neglected those least fortunate of all. I will say a prayer. It is the least I can do.

But -- something you said. It is similar to something that Zenobius told us. That he couldn't even bury them here. I had thought he meant physically, but.

"Wake to death's work."

What do you mean by this?

[downswing]

Past the lighthouse, we have seen creatures perish at sundown, wake with morning.

Likely, the dead buried would do the same. Toiling endlessly.

Let's be righteous then.

Where do I start?

i can help with a bonfire. just name the spot.

[downswing]

We require purifying flames at sea.

Perhaps, bonfire upon a raft? Accrue one.

I have some incense left. I'll bring it.

I can do fire.

[Or, well, some of his personas can, either way, and using them for things outside of battle is new, but they haven't seemed to mind so far.]

What do you need?

[downswing]

Find and light candles.

I lend my light.

Gladly accepted. It burns true.

You know I've been looking, and I'm starting to wonder: what about seeing if our ragtag bunch has those who can enchant lanterns? Since I've found some of those, if they were to hold an ongoing flame, that might be... a marker for the dead, versus the calling of this tower of light and mystery.

Suitable to withstand the temperament of the sea.

I shall pray and light what incense I can. They are not forgotten.

[downswing]

Better candles procured than prayer.
