I hope my family buries me with my favorite dice set

As I recall, the bones were identified as gaming pieces. there's a similar game played in the area, and the winner gets to keep the losers playing pieces.
She was either so loved that a bunch of kids gave her their dice pieces as a symbolic gesture, or she fuckin rekt so many kids at dice one of them up and murdered her. Who can say.
Heckin gamer right there
Put it in your will, and they'll have to.
