Necropolis of Rabakka
More than 100 miles from the city of Khartous, deep in the Maighib Desert, is the large Necropolis of Rabakka. Its distance into the desert means that a burial requires an extensive processional, and thus it is usually the burying place only of the elite. Originally founded for the family of the sultan and other nobles of the kingdom, it became the necropolis of choice as well for people of wealth or those who want to do particular honor to their dead. This includes families from cities across the kingdom, not just those in Khartous. Common people, and those of less wealth, must make do with a minor necropolis only a day’s journey or so from their hometowns.
