Undead experiments

Athos stayed behind, along with the prisoners' skeletons. "Well, I'm done with the human experiments, so let's start with the skeletons?"

Athos could have sworn that the skeletons' empty eye sockets were wide with amazement at the moment, but he didn't mind that. Athos was more excited to experiment with the dead than the living, really.

Now that he was sure he could remove any of the bones from the skeletons and relocate them freely, he wouldn't need to hold anything as long as the skull was kept intact.

The experiment he was most eager to do was to test whether it was possible to add limbs to skeletons or fuse skeletons together, creating chimeras of bone. Having similar energy signatures there shouldn't be a strong rejection and Athos had tested that it was indeed possible to modify skeletons.

"You two, come closer." Athos spoke and two skeletons took a step forward, though they shivered like leaves in the wind.
