Spirit Speak
Spirit Speak is closely tied to the Necromancy skill, determining the effectiveness of many necromancer spells.
When the spirit speak skill is activated from the skill list, you will attempt to drain life force from a nearby corpse to heal yourself. If there is no nearby corpse with remaining life force, you will use your mana to heal yourself. Healing with spirit speak adds directly to your hit points, and ignores any poison or mortal strike effects. However spirit speak can be disrupted like any other spell. Spirit speak is very useful in some situations such as when you've just resurrected and have low hit points, but have no reagents or bandages to heal with.
Having the spirit speak skill also allows you to speak to the dead. At 100 spirit speak, the babbling of ghosts becomes intelligible speech.
When the spirit speak skill is successfully activated, you gain the ability to see ghosts for a period of time.
Training
The fastest way to train spirit speak is to gain it passively while training necromancy and casting pain spike. However you can also train spirit speak by simply using the skill repeatedly.
