The Cemetery east of Tenebrae entombs many of Pagan's dead.

Description

In addition to its intended use, it's also serving as a central site for the worship of Lithos. Traditionally, the Necromancers dwell here, amidst the charnel-houses and gravestones. In the northeast of the area lies the ancient Tomb of Moriens, the first Necromancer, and the very place where the Necromancers live and do their work. The northern border of the Cemetery, marked by the mountains, houses a bone house with the entrance to the Catacombs. The undead in service to the Mountain King may be found roaming freely in this place, and those who venture to the Cemetery should be prepared to face an array of Ghouls, Skeletons and even Ghosts.

Lore

“

The cemetery is where the dead are interred and then sent to Lithos. It is also home not only to the Necromancer and her Apprentice, but to dozens of the Mountain King's servants. Even before reaching the cemetery, the stench of death becomes overpowering, and many ghouls and skeletons are visible from the gates. Very few are brave or foolish enough to enter the graveyard to speak with the Necromancer, and usually only the Apprentice travels into the city for supplies. – from The Chronicle of Pagan (Ultima VIII)

Trivia

• Many of the tombstones in the Cemetery contain either in-jokes, puns or cultural references. The only one not following that pattern is on the grave of Kilandra's daughter, which in turn is important for the ghost armour sub-plot.
