It's not... unusual for the place. The exact magic will vary from place to place, but inciting people to kill is indeed nothing new. I do not know how much Karsa has explained, but we're basically as valuable to them dead as we are alive, so they do not care much about which we are.

[Moran examines his own tablet, and indeed, the characters are written in his own, precise script.]

Interesting.

[But then he'll put it back down. There is no need to keep it.]

As we are, we have actually traveled five years in the past. Which means some of the undead lords we had killed previously are once again very much alive. This pocket of time is ruled by one, but which one? A known entity or one we haven't met?

Time and space are also quite... elastic here. We've already been to two places where time was not working properly.

[probably not a conversation to have standing where some unknown forces are trying to get them to kill each other, though.]

Let's press on towards the building.
