Codex Mors

This article is a stub, traveller. You can help us complete the Archivum Wisteria by expanding upon it.

The Codex Mors is the primary holy text of the cult of Lysanthir Lugolor, the Atarlie God of Death. The work is a divinely-dictated treatise on the nature of death, providing prescriptions for pre- and post-mortem prepratory rites, the formulae for funerary rites, and other bits of trivia. Uncommonly for the holy works of evil gods, the Codex is heavily reproduced and widly available. A great many elder elves, sensing their oncoming deaths in their bones, obtain copies and study them for the philosophical commentary on the nature of a "good death" and to steel themselves against the fear of the oncoming grave, knowing they too will one day have to explain themselves before the Judge of the Ultimate.
