Shrines of the Dead

The Shrines of the Dead were several plots of land in the hills and forests around the remote plateau in the Twilight Mountains known as the Lair. The Imperial edict to burn corpses never really reached the isolated Lair. Every shrine had a statue to Emma-O, the Fortune of Death, and the largest shrine, where the ruling line of Jomei were buried, had a statue made from solid jade. The Jade Statue of Emma-O was a gift the Lair received from the Kaiu Daimyo, shortly before the valley cut itself off from the Emerald Empire. Book of Earth, pp. 165-166
