Hello, I hope you are all doing well. My name is Hu Tao and I was curious.

Is there anyone here who might be interested in learning how to do a burial? Or perhaps might know a thing or two about it?

Please do let me know, I want to see how many people might help me restart my business! I promise that if you join, you'll be a discount on whatever coffin you choose!

[And there she goes.]

A business?

Your faction is actually paying you for this?

[He's assuming a faction is bankrolled it at least.]

[localweirdo]

You make it sound like it's surprising that such a thing is allowed.

[Because burying the dead is an essential thing!!]

Huh, you know? I could see those rituals coming in handy if we get, like, a ghost infestation at some point. I'm absolutely expecting it.

But I don't actually need a discount on a coffin. That'd be sorta weird for an immortal wouldn't it?

[localweirdo]

All the more reason why you should come and learn all about it! You never know if it might come in handy with so many things going on.

Even if you don't need a coffin, I'll probably throw in something if you wish to learn.

[Look, she's trying.]

Hello, Miss Hu Tao!

I can't say I've done them before. But I'm aware of a few things about burial rites.

[When you're old, you likely see some things.]

I doubt I'll need a coffin, but I wholeheartedly support your endeavours!

[localweirdo]

Hello!

Oh? Care to tell me what you know about them? I'm curious to see what the general population knows about burials!

Is your business running a funeral parlor?

[localweirdo]

Of course! Is there anything you wish to learn?

[Nevermind that he may or may not be interested but she has to figure out how to keep it running!]

[mahoraga]

You're finally doing it?

[localweirdo]

Of course! If I'm going to be here, I might as well start it now!

[playfoul]

Interesting choice of business. You sure you'll make coin in this market?

[ Last time he checked, the dead here are quite sprightly. ]

[localweirdo]

I'd like to think so. If not, it just means I need to try another method right? I'm sure something will work eventually!

[Because not even hell was going to break her spirits over this!!]

Burials? Isn't just burning em more efficient?

[localweirdo]

Burning works just as well! However, it's still beneficial to give them a proper send off!

[Barton, you can't just burn someone like that!]

[brokebitchmountain]

As you know you will have my aid if you do decide to go about such things here. While I'm not sure how well it will be met in this place, I will do my part to help support the parlor should you open it up once more.

[localweirdo]

We never know until we try! And besides, I like to think that anything could happen here in hell. Our business might go well compared to back in Liyue with how people openly talk of death here.

[For better and for worse!]

Does anyone need it?

[That aside, though, a more serious message follows shortly:]

Learning is important, either way. I think we could help each other!

[localweirdo]

Of course! It's always a good thing to learn more about the traditional way of how to do burials!

[And it's good for business!!]

Are you interested?

un: dynamight

[apshot]

A discount on a coffin? That's supposed to draw people in?

[localweirdo]

You'll be surprised at how expensive they can get. Especially when you take into account how limited the space is too here!

un. dimitri.

[stubboarn]

Are you serious about the business itself?

If you are, I would be interested to learn.

But if it's meant for some kind of morbid exhibition, then I'll withdraw my offer.

[localweirdo]

[What's this? A person who might actually want to learn?]

If I wasn't, I wouldn't have suggested it! We do talk and teach about the proper ways of burials so you have to be prepared.

While I would never resort to exhibition on dead bodies, it does require one to have a strong stomach!

un: yharaskrik

[psionicmolotov]

I have some experience with cremations
I would like to learn about your customs

Is this going to be a full time commitment

[ He's not a stranger to corpses, and more than that, he's honestly just curious. ]

[localweirdo]

As of now, I think I'll depend on your availability. If you wish to do full-time, you can! All I ask right now is to have your loyalty if you are interested.

[Although, she is holding back her excitement over the idea of a potential employee!!]

You were Curious? I thought your name was always Hu Tao. What a revelation.

[localweirdo]

Oh, you didn't know? Well, I'm afraid that now you do!

What a surprising turn of events!

[worldbent]

Perhaps it would not surprise you to know, but exorcist clans have very specific burial rites that must be followed. Our wakes and memorial services are public, but the funerals themselves are limited to exorcists only due to the risks involved.

By the by, my funerary arrangements are already more or less in place back home. But I suppose I should be thinking about contingencies, should I not make it back, hm?

[localweirdo]

Please do not worry, I am aware of the current situation I'm in! As long as I don't make the people at the temple mad? I'm perfectly fine.

But should anything happen, please do consider joining. That coffin will be there for you!

[cutcloud]

How have you made out, Hu Tao?

[localweirdo]

I like to think I've done fairly well! I have some potential employees so I can't complain.

I have to admit, I am surprised. I thought the people here would be afraid at the idea of working at for funeral.
