I have to admit I'm struggling to figure out what the storyline is here, why they are "honored," etc. Maybe somebody could summarize the story of exactly what's happening and we can think about a new thematic layer for it?

The idea is that the Soul Guides have the ability to guide living travelers through the land of the dead (the "Spirit World"). Travelers need a guide to lead them into and out of the Spirit World, hence the need for a Soul Guide on either end. Time also passes differently in the spirit world, which is why the "teleportation" from one guide to the other appears instantaneous.

Right, like teleporting across the material world via the Astral Plane in D&D.
