Ash

Ash is what the Crematorium I leaves behind. Burning a corpse gives 5 Ash and 1 Salt (twice as much with the Cremator perk), along with the burial certificate and 1 red and 2 blue tech points. The crematorium comes from Body Places I (5 red, 5 green) and stands in the morgue.

In the demo Ash is only an alchemy ingredient. It has one green and one blue rune, so a single Ash makes Dream Dust. Its other recipes, ink and funeral urns, cannot be made in the demo.

Notes

  • Cremation is not a burial. The body adds nothing to your graveyard and does not count toward the achievement for burying 50 bodies (see Graveyard).
  • Studying it costs 3 Science and 2 Faith and gives 10 blue.
