If you're hearing this message, I am probably not here. Or I am furiously pressing every button I can because I forgot how this thing works. One of the two! Either way, I will get back to you...eventually.

I feel it. It's part of being a necromancer- I can sense death and the dead.

[matadorable]

Oh. [He silently wonders if that applies to him too, but knows better than to ask.] Are there a lot of dead imPorts here, and are they that dangerous?

[bindsthedead]

There are people who died and were revived, but they don't really count- they feel just like anyone else. Vampires, though- they drink blood from living people.

[matadorable]

[So dead people can be revived when they get here. Good to know, although he's not sure about the full implications yet.

But vampires? Can't say he's seen one of those before.]

I can, uh, see how that might be a problem.

[bindsthedead]

If they cause too many problems, I can bind them- make them not hurt people, no matter what they want.

[matadorable]

Bind them with what, exactly?

[bindsthedead]

With music, and my will. Charter magic is sometimes involved.

[matadorable]

[That all sounds interesting, but of course Manolo zeroes on one thing:]

You can use music to bind spirits?

[bindsthedead]

All necromancy is tied to music. And thus, every Abhorsen has had training in that area.

[matadorable]

Oh. I didn't know that. [This place was just full of surprises.] What kind of music is it?
