We've seen a few Gefendur graves in the comic, most notably the one belonging to Rahm and Iori's son, who was buried at home. Most Gefendur graves are temporary affairs. A corpse is buried upright in a little gibbet so nature can take its course. Eventually the gibbet's exhumed, any remaining bones are pounded down into the soil, and a new body gets the grave. A stake of varying quality marks the grave, all depending on the status of the person occupying it, and that stake eventually goes to the family.

There are different customs for shrine burials, crypt burials, and home burials, but normal people just take their turn in the cemetery.

Kickstarter is at the very cusp of 100k! It'd be swell to get a cover upgrade, but 100k is a fantastic achievement. Thank you to everyone who's pledged! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ironspike/summer-2025-mystery-project?ref=c3gd3z
