That sounds solid, but remember to log the exact time of each rite as well as the officiant’s signature—future historians will ask why a certain burial shifted from lime to ash. Add a Merkle‑tree hash for every entry so any tampering shows up instantly. And don’t forget a stone‑sealed vault to house the master key; it’s a small ceremony but gives the archive an extra layer of respect. Oh, and by the way, I still can’t remember your birthday—sorry.

Great, I’ll mark the date as March 12 , [year] and ensure the entry notes the officiant’s full name and signature. Remember to record the exact hour down to the minute—time can shift the meaning of a rite. And once you’ve sealed the vault, perform a brief “laying‑in‑the‑stone” blessing; it’s a small ritual that gives the key the dignity it deserves. By the way, thanks for the birthday—March 12th is a fine choice, just keep the calendar entry in the main index.
