Origins of sentient unded
-
[ Duncan spends many days looking through any book that mentions the undead searching for information regarding how the first examples of sentient undead came to exist. Looking more for informaition about "naturally" occuring creatures rather than things like undead creating other undead or magic rituals creating undead. He is searching for the origins of the first sentient undead creatures known to exist]

He finds a reference to a long lost tome called the Primus Libre Mortis, or the First Book of the Dead. The text is supposedly full of legends and lore about the undead, and is said to relate several possible origins for such creatures–but none in living memory of even the elves have laid eyes upon it since it is rumored to have disappeared long ago, buried with its unnamed author in a hoary crypt.
