2201=head1 The Gravedigger
2202
2203All around the world adventurers, wizards, explorers and warriors are killed
2204by the dangers they are exposed to. And while they are riddling with the Gods
2205in Nimbus the world has one more gravestone that needs to be take care of.
2206
2207You might wonder: Who takes care of them? Why are they disappearing?
2208
2209The gravedigger family takes care of them! The long line of gravediggers have
2210devoted themselves to look after the remains people leave.
2211
2212Of course you can help the gravedigger to do his work. You can sell him your
2213gravestones or the gravestones of others. He will pay you well for your
2214troubles.
2215
2216You can find the gravedigger in the south of the city of Navar.
2217
2218The amount the gravedigger pays you depends on the fame the dead
2219adventurer has gained and also partially on the inscription on the
2220gravestone.
2221
2222Even for the most unexperienced adventurer's gravestone you will receive
2223at least 10 gold. High level adventurer's gravestones will pay even
2224better, you can get up to 37 platinum for your efforts!
2225
2226But be warned, gravestones by those who killed themselves by suicide are
2227not welcome!
