Afterlife
When you die your soul is collected by your favored deity and judged. Often times if the individual espoused the deity's tenants they will be welcomed into that gods hall and given a life of luxury where their whims are granted. However if the individual did not uphold that deity's tenants then they will be forced to perform a labor for the god in order to repent.

These labors are performed on the material plane but for every moment spent on the material plane the soul's essence will wane. An experience that grows increasingly more painful. Souls unable to accomplish their labor before their essence wanes completely will simply cease to be.

The labors are based on the deity's values. Erdon & Dew might have the spirit perform a guardianship where they watch over a weak individual. Heim might have the spirit perform work. Evil aligned gods like Claw are far more unforgiving. To Claw a premature death may be a sign of weakness rectified only by the souls ability to survive on the material plane for a long period of time. Zeal only accepts souls it wants and those that fail to bring gifts when their body dies may never achieve salvation.

The Black is perhaps an exception his followers believe that there is no afterlife.
