Q'uila let's the healing magic dissipate when Thanatos pulls his hand back and cocks her head to the side as she looks at him.
"Ah, not exactly. Everything on my world is made of aether; magic, the soul, and the body. When you die your aether is returned to the Planet, what we call the Lifestream, where it is recycled and used anew in some other new creation. When someone dies suddenly or violently in battle there is a period of time where the link between body and soul has yet to fully disappear, Raise reestablishes and reinforces the connection before it is completely lost but the time frame for that is short. I could not successfully use Raise on someone who has died more than half a bell ago or on someone who has died of natural causes, their soul would not be strong enough for the magic to keep back. Magic that can achieve that is classed as necromancy and is forbidden."
