The funeral site is our equivalent to the graveyard, allowing you to view the heroes you've lost. Unlike Darkest Dungeon, the Funeral Site has its own custom NPC (Irya the Corpse handler). The site is based heavily on the idea of a "burial at sea" and replaces the decorated headstones with bodybags.
