# In Whole
We lack the strength the lost gods held. The dead still rise, but our work has allowed people to live again. We remain without a cure. Everyone dies and they return mindless. No longer human.
We are but shadows of those who came before. We hold immense power, but we remain mortal. In one sense we are immortal, in the other we can still be killed. I had once considered ending my life and releasing my power. Our work now in rebuilding is of much greater importance.
REALLY LATE
The thing that baffles me most, is the place between. We have yet to find out whether it was there before us, or created in the ascension. It runs like a river, everywhere, flowing, Yet stationary. It is the fourth plane. The first two, mortal life and death, the third being the godly realm.
