"Natural?" The skeleton spoke. "Nah. I'm not."
Vanilla put Rowie on the floor. He sniffed around the dust accumulated from years, if not centuries.

"Then what's up with you?" Vanilla inquired once again. "Are you some kind of guardian? Do you come from another plane? You seem more like a product of necromancy?"
