Mummification dates back to the times of antiquity. The earliest priests who worshipped Draen-Dalar performed burial rites and commonly whispered a prayer dedicated to the person who had deceased. Often the royal families and aristocrats would prefer towrap their loved ones in expensive linen sheets carefully woven by the seamstresses. The process itself has experienced few changes to help the preservation of the body. The common procedure is evisceration and dehydration of the cadaver before tightly wrapping it into linen. The old traditions that respected the last will of the deceased have transformed into something that carries a more malignant purpose. Today the priests place the mummies of their defeated foes into tombs specifically built to preserve them and use them as a magical reagent for their death spells.
