"There's no need to feed the dead!" Negris sprayed Xi with spit right there and then.
Xi, however, remained steadfast, even dragging over a corpse: "I've been nurturing it, it's intelligent."
The zombie glanced at Xi, then at Negris, and finally towards Ange, before slowly kneeling towards Ange.
"Eh, intelligent... witch?" Negris approached in surprise, giving it a detailed inspection.
After some research, he found that this really was a witch, a witch that had only recently awakened its intelligence.
"You raised it?" Negris asked skeptically. Do the undead still need to be raised?
Each intelligent undead creature is precious because they are so rare. Among millions of undead, only a few might possess intelligence.
Dark City has over three thousand intelligent undead inhabitants. This was due to a millennia of time, built on a base population of tens of billions.
