"Oh." The Balladeer furrows his brow at her for a second, but then nods, seeming to accept the answer. Sure, people come from all sorts of worlds around here. "Well, it isn't common. Not even for criminals, that I know of. Most people get buried or cremated here."

He hasn't had to actually explain much of anything about this dimension to people of different ones. Most of them, after all, have been here longer than he has. But funerary practices aren't really a topic of everyday conversation, he guesses. At least, they aren't in ordinary worlds. Back home they were still a pretty sore subject, particularly among the Acid Club, but it came up a lot more than normal.

"What's it like where you come from?" Melanie can feel free to interpret that as a question about her world in general, or just its usual way of disposing of bodies. He meant the first, but either's interesting!
