Thank you for answering! In my homeland, there is a sacred place called the Orbwise Path, a cave where the holy serpents dwell. We go there to offer our prayers and the remains of our loved ones, that they may be reborn. But I suppose we do not get to keep the remains of those who fall here... So the snakes would only be able to offer spiritual comfort. Also I believe that Mr Majima would like them very much, and I wish to honour him as a cherished friend.

That's new.
Does the type of snake matter for this ritual/spiritual comfort?
no subject
Usually they would need to be large enough to swallow a person's body, as that is our funerary tradition.
[ i am sorry to inform you that they are horrible ball snakes and they look like this ]

I see.
I do not think allowing large man-eating snakes is a wise idea at the moment, considering.
Would a smaller one suffice?
no subject
Oh...
I understand.
A small one would do much to raise spirits, yes!
I do love all kinds of snakes, even if they may not be the holy beasts of the Path.

Anything else?
