Soul hunting

Soul hunting is the process of capturing the souls of entities into containers, most often soul gems.
Like mushroom pickers, soul hunters have secret areas where they know souls will appear. Tombs, graveyards and areas with infernal influence are favored areas for collection. The process is usually to get soulgems, farm tombs, fill soulgems, sell soulgems, repeat. 
Towns with large family ancestral tombs often have businesses of restocking soul gems in bulk for soul traders, in order to rid the tombs of ancestral souls.
Soul traders are often heavily taxed to reduce the strain on the silent majority, but blackmail is rampant among councilors legislating on the matter.
