Your Family Grave Registry Can Talk

Many people have heard of family trees and clan genealogies, but very few know about a "tomb genealogy." Put simply, it is a book of future prophecies written for the head of a family. It specifies what will happen to the family at certain points in the future, what kinds of people will appear, what sort of destiny will rise to prominence, and even who will die. All of this is formally entrusted to the family and preserved for generations, so it can be checked against events one by one when the time comes. A family genealogy records the living; a tomb genealogy records the dead. One belongs to yang, the other to yin, and each has its own purpose.
