“When you don’t believe in magic.
But the beauty is that when you’re dead,
You can tell me all about it!”

“I just admitted doubt in my beliefs,” said she to the necromancer, “how confident are you in yours?”
“Put up or shut up, pal.”

This had me somewhat confused. The title says: “necromancer to the sorcerer.” But then it seems that the first line is uttered by the sorcerer. No?
I did find it amusing, though.

In my mind, the whole thing was the necromancer talking to (you might say taunting) a doubt-ridden, and thereby defenseless, sorcerer. But I was in a mood more whimsical than sensical.

I read it that way, too, but it didn’t make sense then. It does now. Thank you for clarification. Sometimes we’re not in the right state of mind to understand things.

Indeed. And then of course, sometimes we’re not in the right state of mind to make understandable things.
