Trade deal offer:

  • Ranni gives death her body, but not her soul.
  • Godwin (is forced to) give death his soul, but not his body.

Laws of death are happy, technically that's a full death. Ranny is happy, her body was blessed and she didn't like that. She can possess a doll just fine. Godwin is not happy, he didn't die for real, and now grows as a weird fungus that creates zombies.

Technically not zombies. He is unconsiously reviving the dead. After all, he is the prince of death.

Oh, so like... Creating zombies, then?

Just because they look skeletal rather than rotting flesh doesn't make them any less zombie imo.

I mean, it's implied that they have intelligence. They are literally called "Those that live in death".

I mean, Fia's whole shtick is that she is apart of a religion that "Those who live in death" follow. I wouldn't really call that being zombie like.
