Resurrection in the FR setting is a difficult contrivance to build a narrative around, though.


Can't you just open the skull of the dead, remove the tadpole and heal him / ressurect him after? I Mean, he is dead, so you can just open up his body now.


You can’t heal a dead body.
If I recall correctly, mangling a corpse that badly would prevent Revivification. At that point you would need True Resurrection.
