"I don't get sick from bad food but it still tastes awful." 

"Then a good thing the future has cleaner robots." He makes it a charging dock and a cleaning solution refill station for it to find when it's done in the tub.

"What's that? Is that the cleaner robot? What's a robot?" 

"The thing rolling around in the tub is a robot. Which cleans, hence being a cleaner robot. A robot is a machine that behaves autonomously according to a program. The stuff over there is where it will go when it needs more soap and water and electricity."

"The future has so much cool stuff." 

"It does!" Cam makes himself a cup of coffee and looks over the steps of the resurrection ritual again more closely.

It involves a lot of drawn diagrams and invocations of gods, mostly Yog-Sothoth. You have to prepare the ashes a certain way. You can also resurrect someone from a fresh body, which is simpler and doesn't take as long, but is riskier for the resurrectee, mentally speaking. 

Mentally speaking?

There's a lot of flowery language about risks of the person being "diminished in spirit" but not a lot of explanation of what that...means. 

Cam is going to hunt up... all the other written material that was in the author's house at the time the first draft of this book was written... and see if there's any useful notes or primary sources.

If you attempt to restore a fresh body, brain damage is possible if you don't do it perfectly. The method that involves "essential saltes" can't just repair an existing structure, so its methods route around the brain damage thing entirely. 

"Okay... if you use a fresh body," Cam says, "- I'm basing this on stuff I'm assuming the author worked from, not just the Book of Ignorance here - they can wind up with brain damage. A demonically-created live body is not physically brain damaged, and certainly isn't worse at being alive than an actual corpse, but that at least tells me I should probably start with a dead one. I can probably get away with making it without whatever killed Mr. Franklin..." He looks that up. "Pleurisy. So he won't have to deal with an emergency lung transplant first thing, that's good."

"What's pleurisy?"

"Inflammation of the membrane around the lungs. Lung transplant is not the standard way to treat it but it's by far the easiest one for a demon."

"I guess replacing things is probably easier than fixing them for a demon." 

"Yup. Angels are more popular for medical applications at home, they're less gruesome about it, but we're very good at some stuff, if the education's in place we're better than human doctors even if angels have us beat some ways."

"Future doctors," she says gleefully. 

"That's specifically exciting?"

"Future everything is cool and saving people is cool and fixing people's bodies is cool." 

"That's why I went to med school."

"I wish I could go to school," she sighs wistfully. 

"I could teach you things, if you like? In between the malaria eradication and stuff like that. There's pretty good self-paced courses I can conjure up and then consult on the content if you get stuck."

"Really?" 

"Sure. Where are you starting from, like, how well can you read?"

"I can read really well. There wasn't much else to do. I know English and Latin and bits of Aklo."
