Maybe not here in the prism, but where I'm from, the world is old enough, and full of enough people that there aren't many patch of dirt out there that someone wasn't buried underneath, long ago. A person, an animal, but something that nourished the soil and make it fertile.

Yeah. Any garden you tend to, there's a part of it that used to be somebody else. It's nice.
