Problem with that, though I like the idea, is that after a few days, all your friend will be good for after resurrection is being the village idiot. There's usually continuous degradation to the memory and the body's fitness until the body and spirit are rejoined.

Even in that case, it would make a nice "partial payment quest" -- "In order to save your friend, I will need the McGuffin Scroll, which contains the story of the Guardian of the Dead and the brave hero who defeated it." Of course, the scroll in question is being held by an enemy of the CA cultist who would like him/her/it dealt with outside of the White Lady's requirement for peace....
Regain a friend, gain a terrible new foe; all in a day's work! OK, not so quick, but perhaps satisfying (and it would let the resurrectee play a different character for a bit...).
