Day of Korion, 19th in the Month of the Dark Shades. Year 84

I remember it as if it was yesterday.  I was calmly walking through the halls of the Academy when the sudden urge to raise a corpse swept over me.  Thinking it would be a fun thing to do, I decided to wander over to where the healers study how to animate the dead.  (Strange decision on their part.  Why animate corpses just to learn how to cure diseases and heal the living.  It is much more fun to animate corpses to scare people.)  With thoughts of mischief causing me to almost skip down the halls, I merrily made my way towards the healer's wing.
