It's a minor thing, but the heaven/hell references seem to all be at the level of personal character beliefs (IMO, where it should be).
(I used to think the inability to resurrect the "canon sacrifice" from FE11 was a evidence for this, but in light of FE12, it's not.)
What evidence is this? *curious*

I read this as Galdr, haha.
Given all the complications of reuniting soul with fragmented body, I'm inclined to think that Aum does make a new body. Perhaps in the eyes of the creators this makes it different from Magvel's necromancy. And as it brings back a soul, it is unlike Nergal's schtick, which tries to create new life forms altogether.
As for who can't come back -- in the webcomic Order of the Stick, it's said that only people who want to be revived can be revived. Some people are pretty content with their awesome happily ever after in heaven. Others are too young to know how to cooperate with a resurrection. I thought that was a pretty nifty system.
I mean if there's a Heaven, and resurrection is voluntary, what are the chances that daddy Cornelius wants to come back to take care of this dragon shit when his son could do that for him?
