Resurrection

Resurrection or revival is the return to life after the first death. It involves healing the body so it can hold an aura and spirit again, restoring the aura, and retracting (and possibly reattaching) the spirit back to the body.
== Death Progression ==
Progression through damage and unraveling of the body, soul, and spirit relevant to reversing it. Annihilation is not included because there is no being revived from that for certain.
* Alive
** Healing damage to the body
** Waking from Unconsciousness
** Resuscitating
* First Death - Minimum Body
** Aura broken, soul dispersing/dispersed
** Body repaired or multiplied back into form
** Restoring aurasoul
* Second Death - Minimum Body
** Spirit Snap
** Wakefulness
*** Spirit sustained for Light Sleep or Soul Drowsing, so ghost can be reawoken for consultation, a term of guardianship, etc. Requires intervention of living.
*** Ghost
*** Soul Sleep / Deep Sleep / True Sleep
** Believed that preserving the body after Second Death allows for possibility of the spirit being awoken out of sleep and returned to its body as long as there is enough body preserved. This is in comparison to the brief awakening possible in calling upon a shade.
*** Mummified flesh minimum
*** Bone minimum
*** One wet organ minimum
*** [possibly more belief conditions]
** Body also preserved for the Great Resurrection of all from the Second Death in belief that it is needed. It is not. (But people still keep doing it.)
* Obliteration: First Death + Second Death
** Soul scattered
** Spirit detached
