"Hmm." It occurred to Abasi that there might have even been a different name for the profession in Remi's world. He really had to stop making assumptions based on how things had worked in his home.
It seemed Remi did not want to put forward an idea about the afterlife, so Abasi decided to not ask again; perhaps the man was uncertain and the idea made him uncomfortable. Either way, he would not pressure people to add to the wall - that was a way to be sure of poor workmanship. "It is strange. I spoke to a Demi-God of death and she told me we will not return to our worlds upon our deaths...a thought I find most disquieting." He sighed, fingers loosely touching his own drawing of the heart scales and Ra.
"Yes, that is Loren's work. He told me his family burn their dead, to make sure the magic goes with the body." Abasi turned to look at the image drawn by Loren, wondered if one day he'd be arranging the pyre for the Launceleyn... "How well do you know Loren? I met a woman that had known him during Longnight who had some...less than savoury things to say."
