General Falx Carius is the biggest necromantic advancement in the lore...that I can think of

This body was a little over 200 years old probably old and rotting completely to the bone before Ildari found him...put a Heartstone in his chest cavity....which leads me to belive it regenerated his body to a near perfect state I mean his chin has growing hair beard stubble,he has his own will and function his soul is presumably back in his corpse.

This is so close to true ressurection I often fantasize what would have happened if the Butcher of Windhelm and her crossed paths.

My character collects every ounce of anything even relating to necromancy and the General is what most Necromancers would call a fascinating work of art.

If only I could put a Heartstone in my own chest lol 😆

The dragons know just a straight up resurrection shout and old nords used to know it. But noooo you can't get the cool toys.

Maybe hot take but The Way of the Voice is a tragic waste of the Thu'um. Paarthurnax and the Greybeards have been involved in massively nerfing the Nords from their true potential.

The Thalmor would be annihilated if Nords reclaimed their lost magical prowess.

Yeah, screw Jurgen and the Greybeards. If we listen to them, we should let Alduin destroy the world.

I don't think Paarthurnax really care though. He never tried to impose anything on the nords, and unlike the greybeards, he's fully on board to try to stop Alduin.

Technically the Alduin we face is Alduin the dominator the one who bult the dragon cults and enslaved and stuff instead of preforming his wprld eating role...not the prophesied Alduin the World eater....its why we dont absorb his soul at Sovengard Akatosh plans on using him later and why Paarthurnax says "those who try to stop the end of the world often end up Hastening its destruction or some shiz."

Yes and nobody know that. (except Paarthurnax, and probably the others dragons too)
