Oh, how your heart missed the beat when he started to read this spell, freeing souls from the Johanna’s souls! And he said himself it could kill him.

Then you ran up to him, but he was so stubborn saying that everything was fine.

And yet, you knew that what happened was very hard for Emmrich - both emotionally and physically. He was still to return his favourite skeleton assistant, Manfred. How Emmrich was glad when he said his first word, and how broken Emmrich looked when he sacrificed himself…

You have to be there for Emmrich. Support him as best you can, because he's always been there for you. So when you returned to the Lighthouse, you decided to check on him immediately.

“Greetings, Rook!” Emmrich smiles, lifting his eyes from some tome on necromancy to you. "It's nice to see you. Would you like some tea?"

You press your lips together and step closer. You feel in your gut that something is wrong. That spell really wore him down, but he's still trying to be polite and attentive to you.
