Night of ritual killings shocks distant town
A dispatch from a distant region reports the burial of a king and a fanatical rite carried out by traders from New Calabi. The king’s grave held his youngest wives whose bodies lay alongside him in a brutal display. Women were required to crawl to the grave and were struck to prevent escape as the ceremony endured for days. Anscrambles mention the grim spectacle and a Chicago offer from General Boulangier, seen as a curious contrast to the macabre rites.
