Editing Tailspins & Tiki Gods:Smoots Guide Porte Cochere (section)

===Final Reposes ===
The somewhat macabre question comes up, sometimes- ''what to do with the bodies''?. There are several answers.

Visiting mariners often perform burial at sea, far offshore- out of courtesy, not near Ile Trouve. [OOC: Though washed-up bodies are a great plot hook.]. People arriving by plane sometimes bring 'em right back when they go. The French colonialists go to the territorial capital in Papeete, or all the way back to France.

But what of the Kamekame? No outsider knows. No burial grounds are visible from the water (among the Coastal villages) and nobody has been permitted to see the interior well enough.

Now Porte Cochere- if there's no other way to dispose of the body, the soil doesn't tend to allow for a six-foot burial here. But a small, nearby island does. It's not big enough for any farming of use, and only has some trees and such on it- not so much as a rat- but it's a decent burial ground. It has a very small (12 person-pews) chapel and a caretaker's cottage for a guy who lives out there by himself. The visual of a funeral party slowly rowing out there, often with lanterns in the gloaming, can be quite arresting.
