Rejuvenation (arcane, necromancy) 24 hours after King Viadrair is destroyed, his body rebuilds itself on his throne (or, if the throne is destroyed, on the site where the throne once sat), similarly to how a lich's body is restored via its phylactery. If all of Ziafias's buildings are destroyed, or if heroes perform a great service in saving Ziafias (see Concluding the Adventure) King Viadrair loses this ability.
