I considered that, but discounted it as, firstly, the narrator is arguably not dead, and, secondly it's rather passive - the narrator is mostly just being shown the scenery by someone else and asking questions, which would, indeed, be an example of 'not much point RPing this'. Pilgrim's Progress is a better example of a Christian heroquest, IMO, but, as with most Gloranthan heroquests, I don't think it takes place post-mortem (although it is a long time since I've read any of it, so I may be misremembering).
