So we know that the parasite leaves the host if the host dies. We see this at multiple instances.
Now every character starts with a Scroll of Revivify. Why can’t we just kill the characters, wait for the parasite to crawl out and revive them directly after?
I know of course this would stop the game to progress and the whole plot would stop to work… but this little plothole annoys me in a funny way :-D
And Withers?
Withers doesn’t change anything. He too can’t bring back a dead companion that had the parasite removed after death.
