At CrossBones Graveyard, the unconsecrated mass burial ground for sex workers, the poor, and those who took their own lives is now marked by a beautiful garden and lovingly tended to by caretakers who see it as a sacred space. There are also clergy who do regular services of remembrance, regret, and reconciliation to apologize for the wrongs of the church and to honor the dead. There are no headstones here but there are flowers and bees and healing herbs and pilgrims who come from all over to pay their respects to the outcast dead of London.
I’m amazed at how many people this post has touched. This is my most reblogged entry. I hope more people will visit and donate to CrossBones, especially since the land is being leased. At some point it could be paved over if it’s not kept protected.
“Pain doesn’t make people, it’s love that makes people. The pain is inconsequential. It’s love that saves them.”
This just… this whole campaign just… words are hard tonight y’all I just love them so much.
I would’ve been ok with it. The Nein learning to deal with the unfairness of it all, but getting some respite in giving their friend a proper goodbye.
And then Caduceus, sweet cow man, looked at death, the one thing he holds sacred, and said: not now. My friends deserve better.
And the Wild Mother agreed.
LOOKS BACK AT ALL OUR OLD ‘TALIESIN WILL USE HIS NEW CHARACTER TO RESURRECT MOLLY’
STARES INTO THE SUN
EVAPORATES
EVERYONE SAY THANK YOU TALIESIN FOR LETTING US LOVE THE MOST INCREDIBLE CHARACTERS, there is no Mollymauk being fine without Caduceus!
one thing i’m still not over is that we’re all gonna be drawing group art of the nein with molly alongside caduceus and that’s just canon now. it’s actually canon. molly and caduceus are alive together with the nein in canon.
