He goes between life and death (Void) until a set amount of time (giving that to you) then revives. Raen can't return to heaven and isn't allied with the other side, so he is kinda stuck in the mortal realm. Each time he comes back, it's in a weakened form until he builds back up his strength.

Well, due to the nature of this place let's say he just gets stuck in void and will be free once we go back in time. We can't have him keep popping back in just for waiting. That would make it so we couldn't lose in the long run.
