The Burdens Of Magical Office

"It's a lonely way, you know; the way of the necromancer. Oh, yes. To know too much. Lacrimae mundi: the tears of the world...The days of our kind are numbered."



--Merlin, from Excalibur.

More Casual Nomenclature

Henchman #21 (trying to get his fallen partner raised from the dead): But you're a necromancer! That's what necromancers do! That is the definition of necromancer!

Dr. Orpheus: Well, yes, technically. But the term is used loosely these days. Magician, wizard, warlock...they sound rather goofy. Necromancer is all we've got left.
