Soft Punishment
At the first stopping place for Tenur's group, they would spend a few hours looking for possible burial sites.
Most people on Noskain believed in life after death, so even though this was an underdeveloped polytheistic society, funeral rituals were very important to people of all different backgrounds.
One would hardly leave the body of a loved one lying around or simply bury it without any care. If there were a possibility, family members would certainly try to create a memorial and follow funeral protocols common in Noskain.
Sefu was a free man, so unlike most of the local population, slaves, who didn't have many options for funeral rituals, he had freedom and coin.
Therefore, Tenur judged that this man had built something that, even if simple, would be enough for one to easily perceive such a resting place for the dead.
