Yeah, writing death and putting characters you care about through the wringer can be hard. Emotionally. I like to think of myself as a method writer. But that means every time I edit and go through a death scene, I get all torn up all over again. I'm sure my wife notices because certain *difficult* scenes (I *REALLY* torture my poor characters) leave me zombified and depressed for a while. i hope it's not the same for you! ADHD is bad enough. >.<

They still have that link right? Wouldn't that prevent Raziel from falling too far?

I bet you’re wondering how I got in this mess falling moment.

So reborn in this instance is just getting zooped back up to heaven, then coming back down. The pain they experience with death (and often violently so) is meant to deter them from making the same mistake again, but with the same person knowing how each death feels and knowing that agony, it just kinda screws them over as they go along instead. They're "higher" beings, that are supposed to be above said things, but they're still human souls.

Hah, called it. When you're constantly reborn, what meaning does death have beyond the pain? It's like that Arnold Schwarzenegger movie with the clones, every time they die, they are reborn as clones. After a while death itself becomes meaningless and they become more upset with the damage to their clothes than... you know... dying over and over. Not so for Raziel, it seems. Remembering is a good path to PTSD as his mind is still essentially human.

Throwing Raziel down the basement stairs for character growth.

Huh, I thought the gold bit in the middle was just part of the normal armor design. Well for what Raziel lost in trauma he gained a +1 to fancy armor detail. I guess you could call all of this PDTD?
