Before we all head into the labyrinth, I figure we should have a level playing field for making calls about risk.
If you die here, apparently you don't stay dead. You're down for two days or so, then you resurrect wherever your body happens to be. So it's probably a nice gesture, if you see a corpse in the maze, to drag them somewhere not totally inconvenient to wake up.
The temporarily dead also come back fully healed of injuries, but the penalty is some kind of personal loss. Think scars, tattoos, a digit, possibly more intangible qualities, etc. I have no idea what the rules are on that, so if anyone has any useful speculation, consider the floor open.
In fact, if anyone is familiar with this kind of thing back in your universes, you're invited to share with the class. The more we know about resurrection in general, maybe the more we can figure out about how it works here. Bonus marks if you have first hand experience.

Not a lot of nautical history in South Jersey. There's only so many times you can talk about the concrete ship and the Cape May bunker.
no subject
I've known a couple of people that could've used something like that.
[ He doesn't know if the world Tim comes from will let things work that way. Maybe it would. It'd be nice to think there's at least one universe where it's possible. ]
And forgive my nautical ignorance, but a concrete ship sounds like it has some intrinsic design flaws.
no subject
It floated right up until it ran aground, and there it stayed. Weighed too much to tow back out to open water, and slowly rotted into the sea over the decades.

I hate to join the long history of people giving New Jersey shit, but that's possibly the most New Jersey thing I've ever heard in my life. Tell me it's not a tourist attraction.
no subject
It's less of an attraction now, because it's all but gone, but it used to be on postcards and everything. People used to swim out to it and dive off.

[ Krouse just missed the take off of Jersey Shore as a cultural phenomenon, or he might know some more pertinent facts about New Jersey's beaches that could come in handy at this very moment. ]
And you were out there putting your sunken concrete ship that crashed on your, reiterating: one beach with a sunset, on postcards?
I thought Wisconsin sucked, but congratulations. That's dire.
no subject
Also, I would like to point out that I was not born when the ship ran aground, nor were my parents or grandparents.
no subject
[ He genuinely has no idea. ]
But yes, the sun sets in the west. And I'm not holding you or your ancestors personally responsible for the concrete ship postcard situation. I hope you aren't holding mine accountable for Milwaukee.
no subject
Nah. But the jury's still out on Green Bay.
no subject
And cordially: low blow, man. The Devil takes credit for Green Bay and what it spawned.

Maybe he was onto something. You never know.
