After all, even his guide is also the chief undertaker by vocation, the young boar is the receptacle of the soul of the local abbot, and the village fool is a true seer... And all of them are subject to the eternal transformation of destinies, the inexorable Wheel, the cycle of life and death. Only once a year does it stop, and Death takes a break. Then the members of the Burial Brotherhood gather for their annual feast to discuss pressing issues and glorify Life - filling their stomachs with food, drinking liters of wine and deafening with table speeches! They definitely know everything about the world and man.
