Liche Priest Magic, also known as the Lore of Nehekhara, is the magic used by Nehekharan Liche Priests of the Tomb Kings. The magic is based on long, monotonous chants that connect the mortal world to the realms beyond. The wording of these arcane spells has been recorded on dusty papyri, written in High Nehekharan. These incantations, uttered in rituals unchanged for uncountable millennia, cannot reach the peaks of power achieved by the perverted versions used in Nagash's Necromancy, but are far more reliable.[1a]
