Gethran

Gethran was a village on the Quon Tali mainland located about thirty leagues north of Li Heng. It was described as "an unremarkable clump of middling drystone homes, workshops, [and] and a dilapidated church devoted to a handful of local spirits".Dust of Dreams, Chapter 9, US HC p.281 The tax-collector lived in one of the cells of the gaol blockhouse and was in the habit of arresting himself nearly every night for getting drunk at the local bar.
The village's squat temple, solely tended by Hester Vill, bore thirty-two rooms with a tiered cemetery to its rear that was divided by class. Highest and furthest from the building were the ornate, miniature temple-like sepulchres and tholos bricked tombs of the village's wealthy tradesfolk and skilled draft workers. Their lineages could be traced in the village's history for more than three generations. The middle level was characterised by the modest, well-tended flat-topped shrines and capped, stone-lined pits of the village's financially solvent. Nearest the temple--and perhaps most needy of spiritual protection--were the elongated trenches holding the bodies of drunks, wastrels, addicts, and criminals. These were regularly reused as decomposition eventually made room for new occupants.
Gethran was the childhood home of Deadsmell.Dust of Dreams, Chapter 9, US HC p.282
