On the 14th episode of Log Horizon, Regan stated the Spirit Theory:
The mystical energy that animates humans and demi-humans is called the "spirit". Spirit consists of 2 distinct energies, psyche and anima.
v Psyche is the energy that animates the mind. It affects things such as magic, as well. It is also called MP, magic points. (Psyche = MP)
v Anima is the energy that animated the body also called as HP, Hit Points (Anima = HP). It is also the energy known as "ki".
When someone is defeated in battle, they can no longer move, but the mind remains healthy. However, the anima and psyche are split, and psyche is trapped in darkness. This is because the information that flows to the mind from the body, which sensed light, has been cut off. Then the dispersal of the body, the anima, begins. This process is called anima - dispersal. Resurrection magic is used on corpses in this state. The anima that has dispersed into the air is gathered and reconstructed. The information required for the reconstruction is derived by calculating backwards from the information left in the corpse. And the healer provides any missing energy.
You could say that information degradation is unavoidable. Naturally, if the body, the anima disperses completely, resurrection becomes impossible. At this point, People of the Land die. But before that point, resurrection magic will works on people of the land.
For an adventurer, once anima dispersal is complete, the body decomposes into particles. And the psyche , the mind, uses its power to transport the adventurer to the Cathedral, where they revive.
This system is quite similar to that of the demi-humans.
