Lorelai listens, sighing a bit.
"Simple. Where I'm from, the Church of Hextor has outlawed the dissection of the dead. As such, no healers can really perform surgery in any sense, making the populace fully reliant on their clerics for healing and such. I'm a healer, a doctor, and after the disrespect the church showed, the people I could have saved in battle... I was no longer content with their rules and laws. I could just study the dead. But the undeads bodies, when properly prepared can simulate living systems. I could study the bodies of people for surgery and how their anatomies work without performing horrific tortures upon the living to do the same research. Eventually I can teach others in secret, and they never dissected anyone. I'll undermine that failure of a church and their power, and I'll provide for those who need it. The dead will provide for the living. Thats why necromancy.," says Lorelai, taking out some medical diagrams and looking them over as she talks.
"Whether it could or could not, there is no cleric I know that can cast the needed spell, and would do so for a "heretic" of my nation. And if I wish to suffer, an unlikely notion, I guarantee I'd want it on my terms, not yours."
Lorelai grunts and leans back. "I doubt you'd agree, but to me, loyalty is earned, not taken. And I expected little else honestly. I was in the military. Hextor's military has little belief in loyalty as much as the control of fear and pain and terror. I could see the writing on the wall as soon as I was brought in and what others said. Along with you wanting me to stay here. Look, let's make this simple on each other. You want me to obey? Give me a reason beyond a threat and a carrot at the end. Give me a reason to see you as something other than just a new look to an old evil I've already had the wonder to enjoy. Show me that there's more to working with you than being a glorified lap pet. Give me a reason to believe that loyalty will be earned. Or this is going to be long and arduous for us both."
"In fact, just a wild example, seems to me you people hurt a lot of people. Torture has a good chance of causing infection, poor conditions can spread disease, especially in cramped quarters and body restraining torture devices, which in long terms can possibly cause deformation. You could spend time breaking me. Or you can put me where my skills can be of actual use for you. And sounds like you've a beastmaster. I'm sure he's more than capable but if he needs help with veterinary work, I'm familiar with animal anatomy and the required surgical techniques as well. I'm good at what I do. Now I've told you my motivation. So I'm telling you right now how to play things if you want to make this easy on us both. Your call I guess."
Chances were she'd have to play the same game as before. Obey, but not break. She wasn't a very good liar. Seems she'd have to learn. Though she was being honest. If the drow could show her a reason to play ball more, she;d consider it. Ultimately if she could help more people than hurt, it might well be worth playing their twisted game for awhile.
