The necromancer so prevails.

[reparo]

How? How does the necromancer prevail? If you raise the dead prior to consent to ask them for consent for them to be raised, is it not a moot point?

[downswing]

You need not raise them.

[reparo]

You need not raise them to check? How then?

[downswing]

To be stirred, spirits must linger.

As I glean.

[reparo]

So you're one of those who raise the dead - but not the undead that were below, in the tunnels.

( OFFENDED IN LAN. )

[downswing]

I make no claim to necromantic skill.

If I have offended -

[reparo]

[actually, no.]

[reparo]

I apologise for trying to guess at what you are gleaning.

I thought you spoke in riddles as a result of stress (and freezing waters) but it seems not.

[downswing]

I bear the trust of a master of the art.

[reparo]

Oh!

[reparo]

Are they also here?

[downswing]

Effusively.

[reparo]

Maybe I will meet them, then.

[downswing]

You yearn for necromancy.

[reparo]

[What.]

[reparo]

No.

[reparo]

I don't yearn for anything, first of all. I just would like to ask some questions about the whole practice, out of curiosity for other forms of magic.

[downswing]

( Before his eyes, the necrogeeks assemble. )

Best unasked.

[reparo]

Why?

[downswing]

The art requires no propagation.

[reparo]

I don't want to practice it, I just want to learn more! I always thought there was only one kind of magic, but here there are so many disciplines.

[downswing]

( What has he wrought. )


Cease.
