Hello? Hello, yes.

[The dog comes into focus at an odd angle - the communicator is on the floor, between her forepaws as she peers down over it. Apparently satisfied that it's working, she yips in delight, rushing out of view in a close-up whirl of paws and tail and glimpses of an old timber ceiling as she spins in a circle. Then her face reappears, tongue hanging out slightly from her canine grin.]

Hello! I'm the Disreputable Dog. Or the Disreputable Bitch, if you want to be technical. Who wants to go for a walk?

Of course, Kandra don't kill.

[dogwalksyou]

No, I mean, the Kandra things, are they dead? It sounds like necromancy.

[Though if they don't kill, it's less likely. The Dead are always hungry for Life.]

[onlysurvivor]

They're very much alive. What is necromancy?

[dogwalksyou]

The magic of Dead things. It has many uses, few of them pleasant. The core of it is bringing back what ought to be left to rest, and enslaving their bodies, or spirits, or both.

[The words are low, half-growl. She does not approve.]
