So even identified zombie corpses (non-magical) get more money?
Or is it just the magical ones.

Now that is a good hint!

I don't know bombs and giants get you a lot of magic experience!
That is why I am now tenth level magic!

What is your faviourate first quests?  (this is open to anyone on the
list)
