nik is so shit at dealing with the living purely by virtue of life itself rejecting him that, when it comes to 'healing', it really is easier for him to yoink someone's soul, fix their dead body and then just pop it back in

#thonking about magic #something something necromancers are just really late healers #i'll actually expand on all his runes tbh but the healing rune is wild #oh leg wound? here have a perpetual infection. superficial cut? ugly scar. lost limb? you can have it back with living necrosis.#the organic living body really fights him tooth and nail when he tries to fix it. recognizes his magic as a foreign malicious intrusion #which it is #therefore somehow rendering death and reanimation the easier option #though no less dark and scathing to the 'patient'#i'd actually love plots like this. either some poor sod suffering the effects of nik's healing or his meddling in their death #𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐍𝐄𝐂𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐑 ‒ nikodemus ║ MUSINGS
