I'm unclear on whether the Ishgardians saw anything there or if they just watched you kick yourown ass.
More Fray things
I had assumed we were actually carrying his corpse from place to place and hearing it talk to us, like our character actually went a little bit insane. This was backed up when the level 50 job quests has the knights of Ishgard sent to arrest us, and one of the listed crimes was conversing with corpses
