Murdered By Death

"Who killed her?" asked Reynard.

"A grim reaper," said the Necromantor.

"Lancelot, why did you kill her?" said Mortimer, turning on his son.

"It wasn't me! Why does everyone always blame me when they see a dead person," protested the Necromancer.

"Because you are usually the killer, you psycho," said Mortimer.

"I am not guilty now," said the Necromancer.

"It wasn't him the reaper spoke, he had a deep bass-baritone-sounding voice," said the Necromantor.

"I can't go that low," said Lance, the Necromancer who was a light tenor.

"Oh, looks like we have work to do on our side, Uncle Rey," Mortimer, who was also the local coroner, said, "We'll deal with it!"
