[ Reynir can hear from the hesitations in Carlisle's voice it isn't something he's eager to talk about, and the reason for that (or at least, so he thinks) becomes clear a moment later). A shiver makes its way down Reynir's spine as he imagines the kind of magic Carlisle is describing. ]

If your magic is primarily about healing, and members of your order are all trained in exorcism and helping the natural course of life and death... mages who use necromancy must be your worst enemies?

[ It is an odd thing for him, imagining magic being used for evil. He thinks immediately of the kade, what little he'd glimpsed of it in Lalli's memories. Corrupting mages, transmitting its influence through mere eye contact alone, manipulating mages into infecting their communities, their loved ones. He shudders again, crossing his arms and hugging himself. Best not to dwell on that. ]

That's- that's a really scary thought. Mages controlling the dead.
