Hey, it's me. said:

Yeah. I didnt quite mean reanimating a dead corpse but well done for being patronising lol. I meant in the sense of someone being terminally injured and being able to heal them. Saving them from death (within reason, obviously) kinda like the elixir of life in Lord of the Rings. But a force power.

Yes that's true if handled right it could be portrayed as a good OR evil ability. My point is it's described as an evil thing in the PT, so I'm fine with that. Aragorn's ability to bring people back from the brink of death is the very sign that the King has returned to Gondor. So your absolutely right.

Usually in fantasy/SF the hero is required to "Give of themselves" to bring the heroine back to life. Wonder how this would be portrayed in the SW world?
