You sacrifice the life essence still flowing through the remains of a recently deceased creature to summon the undead. You summon 1d4 zombies within a 50 foot square of you. The zombies have 1 hit point but otherwise use the zombie stat block. The zombies follow your command and roll their own initiative using the zombie stat block.
