#PennedPossibilities 1165
Can the dead truly return to the “land of the living” in your universe?
This is what Maggie learns, which isn't much:
Fragments of esoteric ramblings spoke of the dead, always in negative terms: the dead could not be reborn, could not walk among the living, nor follow them after burial.
“It didn’t say the spirit couldn’t remain,” Addie pointed out.
Nor did it say they couldn't make use of magery.
