Kingsdaughter613 she/her Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I think the difference is the time between death and return. Wax is only dead briefly - less than four minutes. If his body was intact enough an AED might have brought him back too... Basically, I saw what happened as magical resuscitation, not resurrection. The heart stopping may mean someone is dead, but given the right skills or technologies they can be brought back even in RL. bordering on AU spoilers so, Spoiler Based on his appearance there I think Szeth suffered brain damage before he was healing. In RL he would probably have ended up severely impaired, if not a vegetable. The Returned are dead for several hours before being resurrected, however their bodies seem to remain for the most part. Kell was dead for years and his body a skeleton. So a rather different situation than the others. heralds we don't know enough about.
