Can speak to the dead… In many worlds last universe, he'd met many beings who'd claim as much, and there was always something not as advertised. In this world, between the powers and being resurrected himself (…twice?) plus that Sabriel is doing him a favor, not trying to get him to agree to anything, Cassian accepts it at face value.

"I guess that's not the strange part?" It was easy to kill someone without them seeing your face. He hated how well he knew that.
