Last night was a holiday for Eva, the day of the dead. She invited Izzy and I along with her. It is similar to what the Rom do when someone dies. When a family member dies you bury them and then feed the grave for three days until their spirit leaves for it's journey. If you do not feed the spirit it won't be able to leave and it will be angry with it's family. Needless to say that can cause problems.
Of couse her ritual is much nicer. Apparently the spirits come back for a day and you spend the 24 hour period decorating their graves and bringing them food so that they are remembered. Of course since this involved wandering the cemetaries placing food on the graves after dark I went for more than curiosities sake.
I danced for Paige and the others who died and I helped Eva make the bread for the graves. We will make sure and feed their graves and tell stories of what we remember of them.
Surprisingly, or not since we have just killed a great many of them, there were no demons to interrupt our night. Which considering Izzy's foot, Eva's and mine's recovering injuries was a good thing, we were armed but not in the best shape to be having battles with demons. I think in a day or two once we are sure that everyone no longer needs our help that Eva and I will be leaving to San Francisco. We need and deserve a rest to recover completely I think.
