Voshrelka now adds undead Awakened badger investigator to the long list of jobs she's juggling

So, a wizard has done a reckless and shortsighted thing, as wizards often do. Another mess for her to clean up. Such is the way of interacting with civilization, really.

"My priority will be ascertaining the strength and nature of her soul, the magnitude of the horrific crimes against nature committed here, and whether it can be undone without causing more harm, but I am available for assistance in lair delving if required. And until I've untangled the puzzle that is Clarabella's existence," because yes, of course, she did ask for the badger's name, she's still a druid, "she is similarly available to offer guidance towards dangers that might be encountered in these halls. If she consents to assist?" And, of course, if they are willing to trust the word of one of the lich's minions.

Clarabella nods. "I will Consent to Assist. I have been Raised Right!"

Voshrelka could reply to that, but has the wisdom not to, and instead just has a briefly pained expression on her face, followed by a nod. "Thank you for your assistance and time. We will do our utmost not to waste it."

Okay, her offer of macabre assistance to her at least temporary allies is complete, on to actually attempting to disentangle... this. "Clarabella, what was your method of Awakening? Were you Awakened and then raised, or was it the same spell that did both?"

Clarabella looks up at her, and tilts her head. "I do not Remember it. I was Asleep. Eriape says it happens Nearly Concurrently, as that's how it's Best for Us."

Undeath would certainly be more comfortable without context of how life can actually not be filled with constant suffering, yes. It also prevents inconvenient preferences from forming.

"I see. Have you witnessed this process in other badgers?"

"Yes, Many Times. I do not have Arcane Sight, so I don't Know as much as the Wizard-Badgers. The Candidates are always asleep when she gets them from Badger Island."
