You say that Necromancers were driven out by mages out of envy, and by people out of fear. But why didn't they just found their own state? They could live peacefully, trade with other nations and races, and the undead would simply work for them. Necromancers don't fight because they want to kill everyone (if everyone is dead, who will serve them – the undead are not eternal either). They simply want to be left alone. And they force the undead to serve them because not every creature of flesh and blood will understand them, but the dead don't reason – they obey.

They could have founded their own state and left everyone else alone. I know that Necromancers have already tried to found their kingdom in the Harash Valley, but they were defeated by mages. I repeat: MAGES, not people. Among people, the Necromancers earned their dislike themselves. They desecrated human (and not only human) graves, in which lay the valiant ancestors of the Griffin Empire (and not only). Again, the question is: how would you react if your great-grandfathers were raised from their graves and turned into drooling, stinking zombies? If the Necromancers have an inferiority complex and have no one to talk to, they could talk to each other (they understand each other, after all?). I am willing to believe that you and AlexeyPank do not want war with people and treat their beliefs and faith with understanding, but judging by the behavior of the undead heroes in H5, Necromancers look more like vile, lying scoundrels, craving power and immortality, rather than philosophers contemplating life and death. I am an elf. I have nothing to do with the affairs of people or the undead, so it is easier for me to look at the situation from the outside, objectively.

P.S. I didn't say that people drove the undead away out of fear. I actually meant that people were defending their territory.

I just reviewed the history of the Necromancers and humans. And I didn't find a single event there that would describe even friction between the Griffin Empire and the Necropolis. It turns out that Markel was the first to interfere in the affairs of people, and not in a good way. Therefore, people have every reason to hate Necromancers.
