On Legendary Artifact Xibalba Stone.
(It is clear that you are communicating with the target. )

If the spirit and the necromancer agree to speak. The eyes and teeth of the necromancer will become the color of green jade.
If the spirit speaks without the consent of the necromancer. The necromancer's teeth will become a black jade tone as their pupils turn an obseidan color.
The voice of the dead is heared only by the necromancer but repiting their words is possible.
