What funerary rites are you familiar with?

The Kaldorei cleanse a body, perform a final viewing where there is singing then take it to a resting place and grow flowers around it. Goblins have extravagant funerals with mourners and ornate coffins which they are buried or entombed in along with all their accumulated wealth. In Kul Tiras burials at sea are common, while the Tauren peoples burn their dead on funeral pyres so their spirits may return to the Earth mother.

Here, burials appear to be common I have gathered.

I don't know how much it matters, unless you want to make use of the bodies and spirits still. Or ensure no one else can.

Perform rites. Remember them. Take note of resentful energy and either put it to rest or harness it.

You make it sound simple.

[ Unlike Some People. ]

Why would the dead be more difficult than the living?

They've fewer needs, broadly speaking.

[ YOU'D THINK SO, WOULDN'T YOU?

Wrathion feels like other people are telling him the opposite. ]

I fear there are some who would disagree with you.

[thesuspense]

Ah, that's generally true.

[People seem to find him disagreeable though no fault of his own.]

Unless any of them are dead, I don't see how that matters though. For this.

[blackscales]

A sound point. It is not their preference that matters, but the preference of the dead themselves.

[ If the two match, of course, then that's all good. Sometimes, however, Wrathion is quite aware people can be spoken over. ]

[thesuspense]

How are you going to please everyone alive for the sake of the dead? The living, they all have their own ideas, and unless you can offer ash to a bird or bury a hole in water, they are not compatible.

Don't ask what the living want for the dead. Just see what the dead want from the living. That part's usually simple.

[blackscales]

A fairly made argument. I will take it under advisement.

[ It does, after all, make complete sense to him in practical terms! ]
