So when a man dies physically physically,

He either has to willingly submit his spirit, because they get called just like the elves do, and they could turn down that call if they were devoted to the Witch King.

Right.

But oh my goodness, that's crazy to think of that.

I also thought perhaps some sort of creepy necromancy sort of, like they're not really yet dead dead.

They're like an undead thing.

Rather than spirits on their own.

I don't know.

It could go either way.

Sort of animating the dead is still not the right phrase because this isn't like animate skeletons in D&D.

This is like reanimate corpse.

No, this is preventing a natural death and extending the life beyond what the physical body can take.

is capable of.

Right.

So that's an option too, but it's creepy as heck.

And by the way, the footnote points us to the moment in appendix a one, three on the North kingdom that gives this exact detail.

It was at this time during the great plague that reached Gondor in 1636, that an end came of the Dunedain of Cardolan and evil spirits out of Angmar and Rudar.

There you go.

Evil spirits entered into the deserted mounds and dwelt there.

I mean, if anything's going to happen, it's going to happen there, right?
