Traditions

-The Greeks believed in a mythological creature named Charon who, when paid, would ferry the souls of the dead across the river Styx.


Because of this belief, the dead were often buried with coins on their eyes or in their mouths to carry the currency across the threshold to pay for safe passage.


Of course, almost all of us don't follow that tradition anymore, because it seems so silly to us now.


But sometimes... Sometimes traditions shouldn't die.


Because this side of the river is getting awfully crowded.
