Clearly interesting...)

Maybe then it's because you are not used to it, so it has no special tone for you...

Yes, there is, it's in the passage I quoted and I'm well aware of it.  However, I think the word "grave" could be interpreted less literally, that it could just mean the place where her remains were, I don't think it has to mean a literal grave.

But then, if it were not literal grave, why to say that it was "green"... I mean, usually you don't give that concrete adjectives to unexistant things...
