Confession Amidst Tears
-----
Erika cried for hours to no end and didn't let go of me. She didn't wanted to eat anything either or continued crying until falling asleep in my arms. I brought her to her bed and we called the village chief and our parents to bring Erika's father body outside.
By the traditions of the village, we were going to do a small ceremony and then his body would be burned by Holy Flames, turned into Ashes, which would then be buried. People didn't bury whole bodies into the ground in this world due to the chances of them becoming Undead.
Therefore if the body is in a good state, a small ceremony with the body inside of a coffin will be done, where people will place flowers, candles, and other offerings to the deceased. Such offerings are not to the person but to the Holy Spirits, asking them to bring the soul of the deceased to a good afterlife, or even giving them a second chance at life with reincarnation.
