In Response To: Re: Soulblighter's Flight From Covenant (Welly)

: Soulblighter brought Shiver back because she was the only
: one that he could... in the Myth comic book it says
: that Shiver wasn't completely gone. In Myth II this is
: confirmed, when it says she was cast into
: "ether", not killed.

: So, just because SB was able to bring back Shiver, he
: never actually brought her back from the dead. She
: never fully died to begin with. He simply made her
: corporeal again. He could not do this with the Watcher
: because the latter was truly killed. Shiver wasn't
: completely killed.

: Because the Watcher was dead, and resurrection of a whole
: person who has died has yet to be proven or mentioned
: in Myth. The closest you get to resurrection is
: reanimation of his corpse. You can make a Shade have
: his memories, yes, but it isn't the actual person.

: So if we define 'resurrection' as "bringing a human
: who has died back to life" then there is no
: resurrection in Myth. Sure, there are 'reanimations'
: (undead bodies) and 'reincarnations' (for gods only,
: like the Leveler) but there are no 'resurrections'
: proven.

: -Welly

: Btw, the word resurrection has other meanings, which
: actually do have a place in Myth. Such as "to
: bring to use again". For example: "The Fetch
: were resurrected in Myth II". This means that the
: Fetch after TFL who went into hiding, have returned.

Well, there -is- an example of 'true' ressurection. From the 'Man not Yet Born.' Skulls to living, breathing, dying Myrkydria definately seems like ressurection. Although since the Giant Myrks turn into black piles of goo, as opposed to the corpses left behind when they were killed during the Wolf Age...
