Jun 4, 2020 at 9:07 comment added Carcer Oh, and just because the elven outlook in general says a certain thing, doesn't necessarily mean that every individual elf is particularly happy about the idea that they will die and then their incarnation will become nothing more than memories some other elf experiences from time to time; nothing in the text implies that their souls are held in Arvandor if they should have the desire and the opportunity to return.
Jun 4, 2020 at 9:03 comment added Carcer MToF includes the line "Notably, elves who have been revived from death by magical means seem to experience their first other-life memory earlier than they otherwise might", so I don't believe that the lore is meant to rule out the option of a soul's resurrection. Ideally, the elf wants to live a long and interesting life and die of old age, so resurrection for an elf who died prematurely is in keeping with that goal. Reincarnation admittedly might be a bit muddier. (Honestly, I'm not a fan of 5e's brand new default elf lore...)
