'To death do us part' in the most literal sense

The Warmth of Summer
The Warmth of Summer
It seems that I once again have a slight obsession about doors, and stepping through them, which is why I couldn’t resist The Writer’s Mess weekly picture prompt below. Follow a little girl who has to make a decision, does she stay, or does she go… She could smell the sweet scent of summer flowers blowing in from the garden, and walked towards it. The smell was intoxicating, with it’s promise…

I’ve been getting back into making pixel art recently using ms paint, and I thought I’d post them before my internet crashes again.
The first one I made to be my profile banner, and the second one is inspired by Porter Robinson’s 2014 album Worlds.
What if clouds and lakes switched spots and every time you looked up you’d see waves being pulled by the moon and we’d wade through the clouds on a hot day. What if birds grew grass and the ground grew feathers. What if flowers were as tall as trees and trees as small as flowers.
General
Do average people believe old tales, or do they dismiss some that have a basis in fact (e.g., Troy)?
Do wild and rebellious young people dress any differently from anyone else? Are they allowed to?
How do most people make a living here?
Customs
Do average people believe old tales, or do they dismiss some that have a basis in fact (e.g., Troy)?
Do wild and rebellious young people dress any differently from anyone else? Are they allowed to?
How do most people make a living here?
Does the weather or climate contribute any habits or customs, such as the mid-afternoon siesta in hot countries?
What is considered a normal family unit? How extended is an extended family? How important are family connections and responsibilities?
What are the rites of passage in this culture? Are they formalized rituals, such as being dubbed a knight, or are they informal? Are they different for men and women? For nobility and peasants?
What customs surround a birth and the introduction of a new child to the family? Is the mother sequestered for some period? Is the child? Is there a formal presentation of the new child to parents, grandparents, overlord, priest? Is a feast and celebration declared, or does everyone keep a low profile to keep from attracting demons or bad luck?
Who is normally present for births? Is it strictly a matter for women, or are men involved, or is the only woman present the expectant mother?
Who raises the children? At what age do they begin to be educated or trained? By whom? Are they considered mini-adults? Do they dress differently from adults? If so, when do they change to adult dress?
What customs surround death and burial? Is there a special class of people (doctors, priests, funeral directors, untouchables) who deal with dead bodies? What things must be done and why (burn hair to free spirit, burn body to prevent necromancy, coins on eyes for ferryman, etc.)? Are the dead feared, revered, or ignored?
What personal weapons are available to anyone who can afford them? Are some considered “for nobles only” either by custom or by law? Are there laws forbidding certain classes from being armed at all?

Worldbuilding Masterpost
Instead of reading, I’ve been worldbuilding. And let me tell you, this journey has spanned so many emotions, and I’m still not done yet. It’s been fun, exciting, stressful, depressing, overwhelming, underwhelming, happy, joyous. Just everything. It’s been a rollercoaster.
So since I’m still in the midst of world building, I thought I’d go ahead and make a worldbuilding masterpost. These are some links that have helped me out during this process. Also, disclaimer, these are primarily fantasy world building sites, but some of these things are also helpful when planning other genres (like historical fiction).
Before I jump into the links, here are some things I’ve learned on the way:
Some people need to plan everything ahead of time. Some people plan as they write. When you figure out what works for you, go with that. I’ve realized I’m a little of both. I need to plan until I feel like I’m not writing, and then I go back to writing until I feel like I haven’t planned enough. This stresses me out, but it also works for me. (I work best when I’m stressed, so… )
Think of everything like a system, and every system affects another system. If your story takes place near an ocean, this is going to affect what they eat, diet, diplomatic relations, climate, dress, transportation and even more things that I probably won’t think of or realize until later.
Don’t worry about planning EVERYTHING. This goes hand and hand with my last point. Everything affects everything, and sometimes you won’t realize that until your second or third or sixth rewrite.

List of Some Books with Worldbuilding
Pay attention to how these books introduce the reader to the world. Some of them have long-winded, info dump histories. Some gradually bring you into the world through the eyes of their characters. If you’re interested in worldbuilding J.K. Rowling style, I recommend checking out Pottermore because you’ll see how much she planned but never really included in the story. If you decide to give these a (re)read, also look at the small details such as legends (the wizarding world in harry potter is obsessed with the numbers 3 and 7), etc. As well as the big things like everything I mentioned above.

The World of Keltarnay
The World of Keltarnay
Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com A world made to save the peoples beloved of the gods, a world kept hidden and protected against that which seeks to devour all life. A world meant to remain in balance and peace – but that peace is broken and the balance is threatened. Can heroes set things right, or will they only make everything worse? The world of Keltarnay is the overall campaign setting that…

A Bit of History
Keltarnay was first settled nearly twenty thousand years ago, when the Powers united to rescue their respective peoples from a calamity that cannot be named. Generally speaking, sages and scholars pursue the details of that deep history, declaring this event or that as part of a specific Age. Their work does, however, include tracking the world’s current events and therefore marking a calendar…
