Two wizards and two soldiers appear in the desert, a few feet away from a tired slave caravan.
They nod at each other and disappear again.

"In her case it's just that she wasn't happy and wanted to stop being aware of that. If her one of us appears she wants to wake up again, but she doesn't expect it because she's been dead too long for Khemet to magic her back."
"Limitation of the spell. Most spells have a time limit, 150 years is honestly on the upper end for one. If I were a stronger cleric it could go a bit longer but not much longer. Three hundred years at absolute most."
"I don't suppose Abadar can do any better? Or would be inclined, I guess, I don't know what kind of relationship you have going on there."
"If she's in one of our afterlives he might be able to get her, no matter how long it's been. I don't know if she would be, though."
He tosses her a crystal ball.
"Maybe being us just helps a whole lot? We could get, like, Telcar - do you want me to call you that or Hagan? - we could get him to look for alternate versions of him and so on."
"We tried for Mirelótë's husband enough times that we should've been able to get him even if he's very good at throwing it off, and even with the limitation of not knowing him well. I guess it's possible that's some specific feature of her world and the others will work fine."
"I mean, maybe being outside the usual set of planes is such a huge disadvantage that you can't overcome it just by trying a bunch? Maybe Mirelótë could scry her husband. Or if you have one of him here he could. Do you, did you check?"
"Would probably have been one of your grandfather's advisors, involved in your father's life when he was growing up, optionally with a traumatic past of some kind, I assume if the name was very reminiscent you would already have noticed. But also my Maitimo isn't here yet, so you could try him. Tyelcormo is not on the right planet to get word where it would need to go right away unless he can convince Huan to help and Huan is only inconsistently willing to do things that aren't exactly like being a dog."
"Would any Maitimos care to hazard a guess if she'd like to be awoken on the grounds that Annie is apparently driving cars somewhere or if she'd rather wait until Annie is actually pulled here?"
