Legend

this was the term used to describe those beings who were reanimated after their deaths by the ancient magic of Dathka Graush. After Graush's murder, the spirits of these zombies were captured in the Heart of Graush, which was later buried with Graush in the Valley of Golg. The spirits which possessed the dead bodies were released whenever a being touched the Heart of Graush. They then set off, searching for their old bodies and then going in search of living flesh to eat, infecting their victims with their own magical disease and creating more zombies. The only way to kill one of thee zombies was to cut off its head. There was no other way to stop the zombies, and there was no cure for the disease, which seemed to affect only sentient beings.
