Hall of the Dead
Map
Location	Falkreath, Markarth, Riften, Solitude, Windhelm, Whiterun
Type	Catacomb

Description

Found in the major cities of each Hold, deceased citizens are embalmed and buried within these halls. A shrine dedicated to Arkay - the god of burials and funeral rites - can be found in each.

Below each hall sits catacombs where the dead are laid to rest. It's in here where the priests may also perform the death rituals. Skeletons may still roam these catacombs.

If a citizen dies during gameplay, a coffin or burial urn will appear soon after in the Catacombs of the nearest city, labelled with the name of the deceased citizen.
