Clarification on “Consorting with the Undead”: Aligning with the undead is illegal. This includes willingly betraying any Bastion, the Kingdom of Eire, or any member of a civilized race to any sort of undead. Additionally, working with an undead for the sake of personal gain is also illegal.
However, speaking with the undead is not illegal. In fact, it is often necessary that we converse with these creatures to gain useful information or to deter them from attacking the innocent. Moreover, it is not illegal to communicate with such creatures for the sake of ensuring, or attempting to ensure, the safety of the bastions or the Harvestlands of Eire.
Eireann and Thelucian scholars believe that we are now outnumbered by undead nearly ten to one, with a little over 1 million mortals spread throughout the Bastions and Eire, and nearly ten million undead spread throughout the Deadlands. We have no accurate information regarding how many creatures belonging to the monstrous races still survive. We do suspect that there are also more of them than there are of us. We no longer have the luxury of high moral ground or the comfort of civilization on which to rest. Desperate times, desperate measures.
