Awesome story, I love the cliffhanger, the interaction, the magic, the names

Not since Nix have I seen such a clever take on necromancy. Well done!
I enjoyed how the necromancy functioned in this. Good work!
Very original use of the theme, I quite enjoyed this and the depth of the necromancers character was well beyond the few words allowed. This could easily be expanded to novella length.
like the portrail of the necromancer in this one, someone focus on the balance between life and death, but still seen by the religious ones as just another one of thoses that disrupt the rightfull rest for their own gain
Excellent stuff. I'm genuinely blown away.
You did a great twist on the theme and some very interesting character building... though I do wish we'd gotten a bit more perspective on what turned Quinel/Josef against his former mentor but I really loved their exchange ad it's just left me wanting more.
Edit: Accidentally double posted, sorry for that!
