[Tris sounds tense. She had so many questions in mind when she first arrived that she never got around to taking to the network. Now's not the time for any of them, except this one.]

So destruction and fighting and everything aside. Does anyone know... how long someone can stay uhm. Passed out in a coma? I know some people dream of what's happening at home like that but how long does it normally last?

Except we don't stay dead when we die here.

[theredviper]

Even here? [Why should he be so surprised, given his own circumstances?] Then these gods truly have some form of humor.

[Wait hold up.]

You mean that's the same where you're from?

[voice]

[theredviper]

There are... stories of the undead walking. Children's tales. They call them the White Walkers.

[voice]

[hisstrength]

Here, people aren't really... undead. [Whatever that may mean.]

They're just brought back to life, restored like they were before. Not sure that still lines up with your White Walkers.

[theredviper]

No, not at all. [Philosophy and matters of existential affairs were not of his concern, and it only made his head spin a bit.] This place finds use even for the dead, I see.

[voice]

[hisstrength]

Seems that way. But then, you say even for the dead, like no strong or capable people die.

[voice]

[theredviper]

No, all men must die, as some say in my home. But the dead remain dead and therefore useless in most other places but here, where the dead return as if they had not lost anything.

[voice]

[hisstrength]

Fortunate for them, isn't it?
