Kote ky'ram

The Mandalorian Death Ceremony ("kote kyr'am" in Mando'a/Legends) was an event where Mandalorians honor their fallen warriors who died facing impossible odds.

To ensure their warrior's spirit can join their Mandalorian paragons, the body is burned on an elevated pyre. Clan members would send shouts into the sky, bellowing war cries and retelling feats. The night becomes a celebration of drunken feasting and brawling in honor of the dead.

Thus far the only outsider to ever be given this honor was the deceased Sith Lord, Darth Raze. By herself, she rescued a Mandalorian clan from a battalion of twenty Jedi on Dantooine. The clan were so moved by her skill and fearless in battle that they even broke tradition and honored her as an fallen sister. Since then no other outsider has been given this honor.

While fighting alongside the Mandalorian clans on Darvannis, the Outlander become involved in the ceremony to honor the Mandalorian warriors who died fighting.
