what if aren did die and it was less ‘he actually survived’ but more of ‘they couldn’t accept his death, so they begged and begged the gods to bring him back to them in which they obliged but in a monkey’s paw way’ as in, sure he’s back but he’s back in a body not fit for life. we brought him back and that’s it. you said nothing about healing him to where he can actually help you. the absolute agony he felt & them knowing they were the cause of it. his body felt wrong, everything felt wrong. like it was no longer his, he wasn’t supposed to be there. he was robbed of something. healing magicks & potions refused to work like they should. his body healed slower than it should’ve. his suffering enduring. by the time he healed enough to be somewhat useful, it was too late to do anything
