Think of Ctis in the terms of ancient Egyptian mythology. We can imagine Ctis has a complicated cosmology of parity in the life/death cycle, unlike in SG/Ashen Ermor where death is malevolent and forced by an externality upon an unwilling populace.
Desert Tombs Ctis is akin to a kind of 'Rapture Ready' philosophy, where the inhabitants are quite willing to pass into death so as to rise again in the final struggle vs. true evil. Or something.
