“Necromancy uses magic to instil magical life into things that are already dead. This magical life mimics many of the processes of natural life, such as movement, sight, and so on, but without actually restoring true life. Restoring true life – in particular the bond between soul and body – is the focus of other forms of magic, such as resurrection magic. Necromancy is closer to puppetry, with the necromancer playing the part of puppeteer.”
