death's most dramatic plot twist, performed by gods, lizards, and the occasional bankrupt company.
means The act of rising from the dead, or more loosely, the revival of something thought to be finished or gone for good.
from From the Latin 'resurgere,' to rise again — built from 're-' (again) and 'surgere' (to rise, the same root that gives us 'surge' and 'insurgent'). It entered English through Old French 'resurrection,' largely carried on the back of Christian theology, where it named the central hope of the faith: the dead getting back up.
