Bone Garden

From PathfinderWiki

The Bone Garden is an unusual kholo1 cemetery located in the foothills of the Brazen Peaks along Osirion's southern border with Katapesh. Firstly, it is unusual, because most kholo do not bury their dead, preferring to leave them to be picked apart by hyenas and vultures. Secondly, the Bone Garden is unusual because those who are interred here do not stay in the ground for long. This is because the graveyard is tended by kholo priestesses of Urgathoa, who are happy to accept the bodies of any fallen kholo brought here by its tribe-mates and convert them to skeletons and zombies. The devotees of the Pallid Princess have amassed a sizable army of the undead, which they trade with the Pharaoh of Fangs to augment his troops.23
