The Girl: What lives once lives forever. Many people wait here to be purified by fire. Only then can their souls be freed from their bodies. A proper funeral should have music and dancing and fine gifts for the gods and beautiful painted towers to burn. But it is very, very expensive. So we wait for a rich man to die, and then we quickly bring out our dead and join the cremation. It is a happy time when so many souls come back to us. One day, my mother's soul will return to a new life sweet and bitter as the old but one step closer to perfection
