Background
Generally, the dead of Samarahd are cremated as burial in the ever-shifting sands is not possible. However, entombment in the Valley of Tombs is reserved for a special few favoured sons and daughters of the city.
The Temple of Judgement stands at the entrance to the Valley of Tombs. The bodies of those who are to be laid to rest in the Valley are first placed in this temple for seven days, during which time they are judged by both the people and the gods. If they are considered worthy by both, a parade is held in their honour before their body is caried into the valley where they may rest for eternity in the shadow of the mountain.
The temple is also home to the cities Cardinal Law Courts. Matters that cannot be resolved in the Lawmaster’s Court are sent here. Samarahd has as many villains and lawbreakers as any other major city, but the Word of Law as a subject is taken very seriously by its people. Despite centuries passing since the tribes united there are still remnants of rules, both written and spoken, from that time. Many of them are unsurprisingly contradictory, given that they were cobbled together from the cultural history of more than 20 individual groups, and they are still debated rigorously to this day.
