I've always loved having the power to bring the dead back to life. I especially love standing over their graves and listening to them try to get out.
The small joys i can gain from this experience. I can't hurt the living without dire consequences so why not the dead instead? But.. I turn my head slightly to the left. I know i brought this one back, yet they were so silent. I look at the headstone.

Loving daughter and sister
Lost in the dark flood
Forever in our hearts'
Hmm. Died young. Dark floods was a term for plague, yet the timing is wrong. Far too long after the first plagues. M,y curiosity got the better of me. I wander off, grab a shovel, wander back and begin digging. I must know what I'll find in this coffin.
END. TBC
