Revenant Death in Lore

[End, Thus I Am]

I'm trying to understand what it's like since obviously the gameplay has you turn to particles/ash, but lore/story wise that happens at permanent death. Do Revenants in story just drop to the ground until they're given enough blood to get back up?

[Nope]

It's the same in story
They just dispensed when they received fatal damage anywhere aside the heart (which is permanent dead), and at the cost of their memories

[Shae]

Disperse = Dissolve

Dead = Turn to ash like you see happen in successor memories

[UnlivingEnd]

When they take too much damage the parasite inside of them breaks their body down and reassembles it somewhere else. If the heart is destroyed they turn to dull gray ash. Most likely because the parasite lives inside the heart.

Dispersal is the orange dissipation. It is a survival mechanism of the parasite that allows revenants to regenerate from fatal wounds. The Lost and Queen were bonded on a cellular level with the BOR Parasite, so they could regenerate infinitely regardless of whether the heart was destroyed.

for the same reason Aeris died in final fantasy 7 even tho Cloud could just use phoenix down

Thank you. I wasn't sure if they made it different in story compared to gameplay.

Because a Revenant is Supposed to Die permanently when pierced through the heart. It is never said exactly WHY the MC did not die after Jack blasted them, I attribute it to being Successor of the Blood.

So... Every lost we kill, no matter how, is just a temporary riddance, their numbers are always increasing?

That being said, is it explained why the Queen can command them? The lost already existed before the Queen anyway.

[Nope]

Both the Lost and the queen regenerated infinitely, the difference is the regenerated rate

[Nope]

Yes they can only increasing, since they are immortal
Probably the reason why the queen can control them is because of hive minds, they are parasite after all. Not to mention the fact that the queen power is clearly supernatural (duh), her power can do a lot of thing, controlling an army of mindless creature aren't really hard for her than using it to maintain the Gaol of mist

BAD END

If the queen is regenerating endlessly why are our character dying just with one hit when he is fusing with the queen's parts? Did they separate the different parts again like for the first time?
