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. )

Will you rescue hundreds ashore, only to ruin them?

[soulmonger]

you know some religions believe burning is holy... it doesn't have to be decimation

[downswing]

Candles may reach even the dead, distant.

You cannot drag them all to shore to burn.

[soulmonger]

well we better make it a big candle...

[downswing]

Better several, small. To expand the reach.
