Category:Divination

Divination has long been the righteous path that many necromancers first walk down. In fact, quite a few necromancers do not start that way, being originally diviners and seers. However, the dark desire to learn what dead men know leads at least as many divining mages towards necromancy as forbidden knowledge leads some towards nethermancy (contacting Demons and spirits of other worlds, detailed in Conquest—The White Horse). Indeed there is some overlap between the two as nethermancers may sometimes summon the dead as well. At its heart, necromancy is summoning the dead for divining, as in the Necromancy of Intelligence ritual.
