"Well, meeting them is technically a different proposition from resurrecting them. When your world's added to Downside, well, Downside is set up to accommodate - if not particularly beautifully so - any number of residents, awake and walking around and everything. I'm much less leery of taking you for a visit there than I am of opening up the floodgates for everyone to go back to the land of the living. Especially since resurrected people are unavoidably able to torch - that's the form of immortality we have on hand, it's so called because under circumstances where we would ordinarily die we instead reset to a healthy state under the rather aesthetically pleasing cover of appearing to be on fire."
