Hey, you.

Any chance I could convince you to catch me a zombie? Alive. As alive as they get, I mean.

I could offer a reward.

((ooc: Aaaand slowing down for the night, thanks guys! I will pick up all threads tomorrow.))

*short teenager is look up at you*

. . . What are you going to do with it?

[drunken_sorcery]

Fix it. Or try to, at least.

[runstowardsfire]

But how are you going fix it when it's already dead? Are you a wizard?

[drunken_sorcery]

Magic, yes. "Sorcerer" is a better term.

[runstowardsfire]

[He does look like one . . .]

So are you going to make it more dead or more alive?

[drunken_sorcery]

Neither. Just less hungry and less bits falling off.

[runstowardsfire]

So it won't want to eat brains and rot away?

But it'd still be shambling around with no purpose . . .

[drunken_sorcery]

Oh, I'm sure I could find a purpose for it, easily. Might make a decent servant.

[runstowardsfire]

So you make servants out of dead people. Isn't that something like necromancy or voodoo?

[drunken_sorcery]

I don't always make them into servants. But it's necromancy, yes.

[runstowardsfire]

Necromancy is part of wizardry back at home . . . But why can't you catch your own zombie?

[drunken_sorcery]

I have a number of reasons. Mostly it's just easier this way.

[Translation: You're lazy.]

I see. Good luck on finding your zombie then.
