In _Jhereg_, when Vlad is describing the Dragon-Jhereg war. He says that the Dragons sent an envoy to the Jhereg, and the Jhereg returned said envoy with his head cut off...but, according to Vlad, "They hadn't done anything to make him revivifiable." Except that according to the current canon, a decapitated body is *not* revivifiable. (Paarfi also pretty strongly implies that revivification, like teleportation, was a process developed after the Interregnum. This may well be an area where Vlad is displaying his ignorance.) -- David Goldfarb <*>| "Speak softly, drive a Sherman tank goldfarb at ocf.berkeley.edu | Laugh hard, it's a long way to the bank." goldfarb at csua.berkeley.edu | -- TMBG
