"What?" Thimb blinked and shook her head at Rik, "No you're the strapping hero protecting the damsel, obviously," explained Thimb, her attention then shifting to Ellowyn.
She pondered the question, "It's pretty high level necromancy to take control of undead you didn't raise yourself, and that would be.... a lot of undead. Not impossible, but they'd either need a lot of necromancers, or to set up some elaborate magic conduits, maybe?" she pursed her lips, idly chewing on her pencil. "They'd need to be big, though, and I don't think I've heard of anyone buying up land lately? Then again, if this is some sort of invasion, they've probably already taken care of that..." she shook her head, "but if you have the power to make and take control of an undead army, why not just sweep in offering to "help" get all the credit and glory and bam! You're basically in charge and everyone loves you!" Thimb apparently did not see this as an Apparent Danger, but a Fun Academic Thought Exercise.
