History: 

(Sandman II #55) - <80,000 years ago> After Despair was murdered Delirium and the Endless went to the necropolis to put her body to rest. The necropolitans had long lost their passion for their job, and didn't know about the necropolis  arrangement with the Endless, so they laughed at them when they asked for Despair s cerements and the book of rituals. The Endless revoked the necropolis  charter, causing it to be destroyed. The village of Litharge was granted a charter by the Endless and became the new necropolis.

Comments: Created by Neil Gaiman & Mike Dringenberg.
