Sarcophagus | Graves of the Lost

LORE & BACKGROUND

Among the shattered graveyards of Doaden, not all dead lie in open pits or unmarked fields. Some were sealed with care (or fear) within great sarcophagi, monuments to lives deemed worthy of remembrance or too dangerous to leave untethered. These stone caskets rest in shadowed crypts, barrow halls, and ruin-strewn tomb-cities, their faces carved with worn effigy and cracked inscription.

Most are silent, their occupants long faded into dust. But not all. Some hold the remains of souls still bound by rage or ritual, stirred by necromantic trespass or the thinning of the veil. These resting places become loci of latent power, anchors for animus not yet unmade. Necromancers seek them out, drawing strength from their sanctity—or shattering them to release what lies within.

In places like these, death is not a conclusion. It is a question, sealed in stone, waiting for an answer.
