Alex explained how and why there were only four Death Sages he was searching for when there were a dozen in the past.
"The one we're searching for is a man, so that means it's not Curselake, Mournfall, Ghostmind, or Rotspine to begin with," he started. "Of the remaining, Gravespinner, Lastwail, and Endbringer are all dead as well, leaving me with five names."
"You are, of course, one of the names, along with Deathgrim, Deadcall, Tombmaker, and Pallideyes. Among those, Tombmaker's status is unclear, which is why, for now, he is being assumed to be dead. If any clue suggests that he may be alive, then I will have five people to go through, instead of four."
Somberskull held a strange look on his face as he scratched his chin, nodding along the way.
