Metatext: Rebound

Metatext: Rebound was a collection of writings by Iosefa Elgin that sought to reconstruct the Metatext, the collection of esoteric knowledge that once granted Deneir his status as a deity.

"If a true assessment of the journey is to be made, then there is simply no replacement for embarking upon it oneself. Perhaps, one day, this great volume of learning will make me worthy enough to walk that path - and wealthy enough to return."

- Excerpt from Iosefa Elgin's Metatext: Rebound, discussing the topic of resurrection.

Description
The various volumes of the book were described as being rather thin.

On Death & Resurrection
This section of the book spoke to the measurable value of a life and a soul, as it was assigned the judgement of the god Kelemvor. It noted that while those that lived a life worthy to be brought back from the dead could seldom afford such a blessing, those that could hardly lived in a manner that warranted the return trip.

The author sought to gain firsthand experience about the journey of death and return, once she was both deserving and rich enough to afford it.

History
Iosefa Elgin was outcast from the church of Deneir for the heresy of writing Metatext: Rebound.
