Textev for no heartbeat--no. I was inferring that the undead would not 
have one, but this is a completely supported observation. It is a common 
element for every form of undead I have ever seen in any genre, however, 
this does not mean it is true in Sethra's case. I cheerfully withdraw the 
comment.

Hmm.. you mean, other than Iceflame? And Aliera, while encased in a staff 
of wood? Why no.
