Ooh, that gave me shivers.
But in the Harrowing of Hell, Jesus supposedly took only selected people from Limbo with Him to Heaven. Meanwhile all of the Dead were granted release from their oath, assuming of course that none of them opposed their king and chose to stay behind and have tea parties instead of fighting with Aragorn.
Just noting a simple observation.
Fea, why don't we engage in mutualism for our respective papers?
