I have no clue but it's a nonzero probability ranging from "still exists and is trapped in battle with The Flesh" to "was killed and is waiting to be reborn." I did earlier consider making them related twin gods of life and death in The Wastes but it might make more sense for me to establish them as a borrowed aspect/deity from the Region below them, the Ensian Region, if I did have them as a migrant to the Maivieux Region. There is some French-ish folklore with the Ankou that I could use here.

No problem, Mediama - RL is more important.
As for being late, you're not late to anything. We've only just begun! : D

If you can, you're free to, but you are not required to, no. Otherwise, I wouldn't be accepted myself. ; )
If you feel safer that way, you can also describe him or her.

Thank you.

Morning, fellas!
Hope you all slept well, have a hot or cold beverage of your choice at hand and had a good meal. Sorry for the double post.
Important announcement: There has been some confusion expressed over TG, but this RP is NOT headed towards its conclusion. I plan to leave it open both to new applications and for people to post on the IC and I even plan to reply. Sure, the posting frequency is down, but post will be coming in good time.
That I announced a beach party for the summer does NOT mean, that I'll abandon this one.
I hope, that this cleared up some confusion. If not, you know, how you can reach me (smoke signals ; )).

Have a nice time,
Selks
