Buncha times, if I'm being honest. There was this whole thing with like, a time loop and a giant worm? Kinda lost track of how many times we got killed, most of 'em Magnus' fault cause he kept blowing us the fuck up. And there's another eight times I don't fucking remember, but according to the grim reaper they happened.

It's the latter.]
