Ok, first of let me explain the situation and what better way than to tell the story of Tulon first, dont worry I will put it in a spoiler section and post the direct question below it.
Tulon, A dwarf of many skills has finally decided to leave the mountain home, it was his 81 birthday in which he reached adulthood and was finally permitted to have authority over his own life.
He always dreamed of leaving the mountain halls he was born at to explore the world around him, sadly he didnt have much choice during his childhood as his parents had to work in the fort and cared little for the nature around them, they were really protective of him too, not allowing him to even play by the river from the fear of the goblins around them Tulon was thinking to himself as he was packing his bag for his long awaited journey to the wilderness.
As he finally packet all of his belongings and gave the key of his assigned room to the room keeper, all the while saying goodbye to all the 200 residents of the mountain home, it was tiresome I'd have to admit.
As soon as he reached the one way entrance and exit of the fort he met Ezum and Ablel, two military dwarfs that were arguing among themselves on where they should go, little did I know they were on a peace keeping mission for the realm but that aside I didnt care where was I going, as long as I got to experience the world around me, therefor I decided to join them as Ezum decided on the destination using my introduction to them as a window to put the final word in.
The few days we traveled were full of wonder, I didnt know trees could grow this high since most of the trees and weed that grows around the fort are chopped down imminently.
Unfortunately our marry days were not long as we had a fateful encounter during the night, as we were ready to camp for the night Ezum noticed an Ogre carrying a victim back to its lair, the beasts greed and hunger didnt stop it from attacking us despite having its next meal on hand, Ablel was the first one to act as a hammer dwarf while Ezum was loading the bolt to suppress the beast from killing us all.
At the same time I, Tulon drew out my steel sword which I was given from my father from the long days I helped him during the hunting season.
Ablel despite everything could not bring the beast down, no matter how many times he smacked it with his hammer it simply stood up and tried to overwhelm his shorter opponent, finally Ezum managed to hit his head with one of her bolts, unfortunately it made the beast angry, it knocked me aside as I charged it and dismembered Ablel limb from limb until only a puddle of gore remained as his severed head was in its fist.
Ezum's shot was fatal to the beast, and it didnt had much time left as it ran at me and fell a few meters from my feet before I managed to get on my feet from the beasts kick.
We buried Ablels body and made a coffin for him out of the beasts bones and placed his skull on it as we said our prayers and continued on our journey.
On our way we met Logem, a female hammer dwarf and the daughter of one of the hillocks Sheriffs who called for the aid of the capital, he explained the many goblins have been sighted around lately, stealing stuff and damaging trading caravans.
To stop them as we were short handed he assigned his daughter Logem to us to aid us on our quest to secure the Hillocks from the goblins invasion.
On the following days we managed to hinder the goblin forces but not much else, later we would learn that the Goblins had a demon as their leader which explained the raise in goblins activity in the realm.
The dark fortress in addition to having hundred trolls and goblins also has a demon as a king, we knew we were no match for that and the capital would not give us additional aid to put their king 6 feet under to discourage the goblins from messing with us and hopefully turning on one another as it is a custom to them without a supreme leader to unite them all.
At that point Logem suggested we seek the Necromancers aid to secure the peace and be powerful enough to cull the goblins to the gutter.
Me and Ezum agreed and so we raided one of the towers, it was no easy task and we suffered a lot jest to get to the necromancers which were many, the necromancer didnt like us putting their minions to rest so they decided to try and add us to their numbers while stating that the matters of living beings are below their notice and warrant.
In a fit of rage we killed them for their treason to the dwarven realm and everything that lives.
We looted all of their books and created a hut for ourselves near the great sea.
Sadly one night me and Ezum noticed Logem taking some of the loot we gathered in the dead of night, she was running away with our treasure and worse of all with the necromancy slab, Ezum rushed into action and with a single bolt shot Logem at her legs forcing her to stop in her tracks, finally it all became clear, Logem was an agent for dark demon lord who ruled the goblins, while she was the daughter of the sheriff and protector of the Hillocks she betrayed him, soon she told us that she was kidnapped at a young age by the goblins and than returned home on a mission as an inside agent, as soon as she said that me and Ezum ended her life and returned to the hut to plan our next move...
Well its kinda long and I skipped a lot of stuff since I played this one adventure for the longest time now, my character Tulon is a swords dwarf as well as an archer and a crossbow dwarf at this time while Ezum is reaching master marksman at this time, my problem is simple, I am already a necromancer and Ezum despite being given the slab did not read it for 2 days since I gifted her the slab, is it even possible that she will read it and become a necromancer?
I really dont want our adventure to end as soon as I will be forced to reanimate some dead corpses that will tear her limb from limb, she already recognizes me as her lord but sadly if she will not become a night creature the zombies will tear her a new one.
Is there a way to make her a necromancer via dfhack or force her to read the slab? will she even read it eventually? what do I do?
thx in advance.
