Had this translated for me, and apparently he's not even dead yet when they revive him. That is, his body isn't. His mind *thinks* he just died, and that will eventually kill him. So they are in a bit of a hurry, but they don't actually resurrect him.
About that, I am still waiting for them to do something about the other side of Aesculapius, which is - healing. Up to and including bringing the dead back to life. Of course, according to some versions of the myth that was what caused Aesculapius downfall. Still. Yes. Ban's constellation is Ophiuchus, which is more than just the serpent. Should be more than just the serpent. Maybe he too has a real strength that he is not yet aware of, more than the destructive power of the Snake Bite, and the evil eye?
