Yeah--I don't disagree with that, I was just looking for examples. I think the
tricky part is having folks accept and understand that death is waiting for them,
without actually foisting it upon them, which I guess is where Durdin ultimately
goes with it. I think that would be breaking taboo for a kinder, gentler necromancy,
though. Like I said, I can sort of recognize that it's there, I just can't quite put
it together satisfactorily.
