Dalari's Coffin

Dalari, the Supreme Leader of the Aendathan Florists, is buried in a special metal coffin somewhere within the Southwell Graveyard.

History

Dalari's Coffin is thought to have been buried in 1530, the year Dalari died. The funeral was a private one, with close friends and the country's new Florise (Dalari being the old Florise). The metal coffin took a year to design, and 3 years to construct, being made from strong metals etched with patterns, and cast with magical spells to make it unbreakable. According to a few people, the coffin was made the year Dalari was born, as famous mages predicted the man would become an important figure within Florism.   Dalari's Coffin was dug up in 2013, by a group of teenagers who had read about the coffin and decided to find it. Unfortunately for the group, they didn't know the coffin was guarded by a minotaur creature, and most of the group did not make it out.

Significance

Dalari's Coffin is the final resting place of the body of Dalari. Dalari was one of the Aendathan Florises, and made significant changes to Florism in Aendatha while he was a Florise. The coffin is famous in Florism, especially in Aendatha, and if you were to show a picture to any Florist in the country, they would without a doubt recognise it.

Raw materials & Components
The coffin is constructed from a thick layer of tarsarium, an incredibly strong metal. The metal is adorned with patterns of gold, silver, embedded with green crystals to represent the religion he devoted his life to. Inside the coffin, it is cushioned with green carpet, to make it more comfortable for Dalari's body. The coffin was then cast with spells to make the coffin completely unbreakable. It was given a guard, then placed underground in the Southwell Graveyard.

I'd like to know more about the Florise. Mainly, why you would bury important people into an unbreakable metal coffin guarded by a minotaur

The name "Aendathan Florists" initially made me think he was some kind of very important flower merchant. :P The detail about his coffin being constructed on the same year he was born is neat.
