Resurrect. You're out fighting some critter and oh look at that, your hp runs out. You don't get knocked out or disabled in combat, you flat out die. That is till a healer comes along and pops a spell that steals you away from death. But seems only we can do that kind of magic. My questions are these.

Lore wise, can npc's do the same thing? Considering that there are healer npcs, like the very conjurer's guild in Gridannia, that can mend wounds; can they also raise the dead? Or is that merely an ability that adventurers acquired knowledge and for some reason don't want to share it? Is it because it takes so much mp to cast such a spell in the first place? Are we just zombies pretending to really still be "alive"?
