Q. What is the big pointy rock doing in the park, man?
A. The big pointy rock is like a temple to the gods, okay, it took us so long to build, and someday our king, or some rich person and/or their pets that's gonna be buried deep in the vaults of the structure you so glibly describe as a rock. These are consecrated hallowed grounds, show some respect, dammit!
Q. Wait, people, and kings buried, right here? With full royal
regalia and royal properties as they deserve in afterlife?
A. Yes, we are burying all those who deserve the respect along with everything they might need in the afterlife. Lots of gold and diamonds, honey and silk too. Beware, though, we have put quite strong spells upon the tombs, robbers and thieves and those even daring to think about defiling the departed s 'resting spot will meet fate much worse than death, here now as well as in the afternoon. It's in your bed interest to be away from them as possible. Give not even a second thought to the evil ideas!
Q.Okay fine whatever, I'm just curious who's paying for this and who even has this insane amount of money?
A. Well technically, I am, and you are, and everybody is.. These tombs are funded by the temple grain stores collected in the summer-the workers offer labor in exchange for grain and liquor given by the temple, which also organizes the whole project. This is a project of great national pride and immortality far into the future, and no objections will be entertained!
