Chapter 30: The God of Death, Latos
Nya was a spirit of darkness bound to Emilia by a master–servant pact. It could neither deceive her nor harm her.
"The power of a Necromancer can turn the dead into immortal beings by summoning them back from the realm of the God of Death into the world of the living. But eternal life is a curse to them."
Emilia listened intently.
"And even for you, the price is steep. You must offer half of your soul to the God of Death and become a half–Lich. Emilia, it is a form of half–immortality."
To pure beings like spirits, death meant returning to nature. Immortality was the most terrible curse, even for a spirit of darkness like Nya.
"I won't help you unless you think carefully and make your decision yourself. You have one hour, Emilia. Decide wisely."
With that, Nya vanished.
The room sank into heavy darkness.
