I am Sabriel, Fifty-Second Abhorsen of the Old Kingdom.
[Bearer of the second of the Five Great Charters, enemy of the Dead, etc etc. The face paint is unusual, but the woman bears no bells, and her skin under the pain lacks the death-bleached pallor typical of Old Kingdom necromancers, Sabriel included. Sabriel inclines her head slightly, and gestures towards the instruments on the walls as Saraneth is tucked away, with leather straps securing the clapper so it will not sound by accident.]
I channel through bells and my voice, and the other practitioner of a similar art favors a flute- what instrument do you use?
[The necromancers of the Old Kingdom might be her enemies, but those from other worlds, who do not enslave the Dead, are not. Might as well talk shop.]
