Proclamation of the Faith
Posted by Orazio on 01/14/17
Let it be known by all of the Faithful:
It has been a long, and long-regretted custom for those too poor to afford burial plots in our increasingly crowded city to be forced to consign the remains of their loved ones to the hole in the earth known colloquially as 'The Pit'. This fails to show the proper respect for our departed, and it deprives innocent families of the ability to express a memorial for their loved ones in a place of dignity and serenity, as well as contributing to a public health hazard. As such, the Archlector of Gild, Blessed Caras, and the Archlector of Gloria, Blessed Cassandra, have been charged with a project to create a new cemetery, open to commoners without the means to pay for proper burials. The land for this cemetery will be outside the city walls, but well within walking distance, and once created, the cemetery will have plenty of room to expand for the generations which come after us.
The Faith extends its gratitude and thanks to the House of Grayson in this endeavor; it is by the grace of Grayson that land has been donated for this cause. May the blessing of the gods be upon the House of Grayson, and all of their lands and endeavors.
As the project nears completion, the Faith will begin to explore ways to close the Pit, and how to do so with proper respect for the men, women, and children buried there.
