[156] ~CONTEMPLATION~ // Voice.

At what point can you turn your back on your crimes? When they become absorbed into "the past" and aren't a matter for public circulation anymore? I don't mean "how long does it take for the entire Barge to forget a crime so I don't have to actually seek forgiveness." What I mean is.

curiosity, totally innocent, omnom hypocrisy, not happy.

Do you want to abandon the person you were?

Private stopthat_destro August 8 2011, 19:37:09 UTC

It's unavoidable at this point. He's as dead as the man I was before him.

Private lifeafterhope August 8 2011, 20:51:01 UTC

Are you in the habit of dying so often?

Private stopthat_destro August 8 2011, 20:56:26 UTC

Not by choice.

Private lifeafterhope August 8 2011, 21:11:43 UTC

What does it, then? Just being here?

Private stopthat_destro August 8 2011, 21:31:19 UTC

No. Dying in a way that you can't fully... recover from.

Private lifeafterhope August 8 2011, 21:34:09 UTC

What do you mean?

Private stopthat_destro August 8 2011, 21:37:40 UTC

What I mean is: Life may be cheap here-- your body may recover easily, but you aren't always the same once you've revived.

Private lifeafterhope August 8 2011, 21:46:03 UTC

Really. No one else has mentioned that.

Private stopthat_destro August 8 2011, 22:07:39 UTC

It's not exactly a feature of the Barge. It's all about how you die and how you react to it in the aftermath. Death isn't as easy here as people think.

Private lifeafterhope August 8 2011, 22:11:52 UTC

It was easy enough at home.

Private stopthat_destro August 8 2011, 22:32:47 UTC

Then perhaps you'll be fine. Death isn't so easy to recover from at my home.

Private lifeafterhope August 8 2011, 22:37:26 UTC

I didn't expect to recover, but it's not unheard of to come back one way or another. Here, at least, the effects of that are less... obvious.

Private; whoops, can't remember if her being from Azeroth is public knowledge! stopthat_destro August 8 2011, 22:55:38 UTC

It's treated as practically mundane here.

How does it happen where you're from?

Private; it is! lifeafterhope August 8 2011, 23:03:33 UTC

Magic.

Necromancy, usually, but that's the kind of second chance no one wants. There are sometimes other ways, but I don't know much about them.

I don't know what brings some ghosts back without help, either, but that happens more rarely.

Private stopthat_destro August 8 2011, 23:10:37 UTC

Necromancy? That would make a person into a thing like Arthas, wouldn't it?
