"Welgaia, the city of angels," Mithos answered with a small, casual smile. "The angels here were all once half-elves and have since become lifeless beings... They no longer suffer or feel pain. They exist here in peace." His casual tone lowered to a soothing lull as he looked over at Genis.

"Isn't it wonderful?"

Genis could become a lifeless being, too. He would almost certainly retain more will than most of the angels, since he couldn't revive his sister otherwise.

And they would revive her. For all the lies Mithos had spun, he had been much more truthful with Genis, and he meant his promise.
