"But we have our rules, I suppose, and our political marriages. Mostly around necromancers and cavaliers, or marriage out of House. It's assumed if you marry a necromancer of another House you will join the House of the necromancer; two necromancers of different Houses would likely not be permitted to marry."
"And a marriage between two necromancers has its own complexities; more practical than legal."
