Meanwhile, Drath, God of Death was having a similar conversation with Bishop Carmen. Both of them were disembodied voices at this point.

"But enough, let me tell you of the differences between me and your old god necromancer."

"What do you mean, necromancer?"

"You have the power to raise creatures to undeath, that is what we call a necromancer here."

"Very well, continue."

"Your old god was a god of undeath, while I am a god of consecrated graves. It was in favour of the creation whilst I am more about their destruction. I will grant you the powers I need you to have. Your talents will be turned to make dispelling the animation magic easier. Now I will teach you the ceremonies of my faith."

Across several days throughout the godly realms, the victims of the swarm had such conversations with the voices that called themselves gods. Here a god of chance and a dwarf gambler, there an elf shipwright and a godess of crafting, a king had been the first conversation for Astria and she had also spoken to the rest of his family but most of the victims were human peasant children and which voice they spoke to was truly random.
