Has anyone has actually died in this place and stayed dead?

[Faust debates adding more because... Well. Context would probably be useful here but he's also not interested in completely outing his situation for all to see. So that's all you get.]

I never said there weren't.

Anyone who dies in this world turns to crystal. They stay that way; trapped between life and death for half a month's time.

Maybe that's what this is too. Some kind of illness. Only it revives us from crystal when we die instead of killing us.

All I know is that everyone is afflicted soon after coming here.

I died not even a month after arriving and still crystalized afterward.

Those here also crystalize if they don't Moonlace enough. Or if something drains their chroma.

Anyone who dies this way revives too, same as with any other death.


[ The entire process of Binghe's own demise and reawakenng is something he'd rather discuss in sweeping generalizations, so he avoids giving a detailed blow by blow. ]

It's similar.

All of that happened more than a year ago, though. I don't care to think about it too much.
