'''Cost:''' 14m<br>
'''Target:''' {{Area}}

Spreading her fingers wide and slashing a sharp object beneath it, the caster cuts the threads that bind a necrotic semblance of life into a lifeless corpse. '''This spell has special timing rules. The character can cast it as a [[reflexive]] [[Shape Shadowlands Circle Necromancy]] action that takes 0 ticks.''' Her next action must be a Cast Necromancy action. All animate dead within 15 yards and a 90-degree arc (in a direction of the caster's choice) collapse, fully dead once more. Zombies affected must be extras, like those created with [[Raise the Skeletal Horde]] and [[Arisen Legion]] among others. Necromancers can use Master Puppeteer's Knife to destroy animated corpses of greater power or intellect, such as those created by [[Exquisite Undead Aide]], by focusing the spell's power on one zombie at a time. The spell does not affect undead war machines.
