Okuro Yoso

Okuro Yoso was a gathering of relatives and descendants of the fallen in the defense of the Eastern inner wall of Otosan Uchi. When a spirit had served at the wall as many days as he lived, the soul was prepared to pass into [Meido. The erlatives performed meditation and funeral ceremonies but grieving was not allowed. The magical [kanji]] on the wall, reminders of the souls who inhabited the wall, became silver hue as a signal the spirit had left.
