Killing usually means shooting or stabbing or bombing or infectingwith plague or some physical disease or some other grotesque means of shuffling off this mortal coil, not this namby-pamby bloody taken in my sleep slosh. You basically gotta suffer to be killed. Then of course you could take the Underverse route and say it just hurts at first, but you wouldn't know until you're there.

Strange, is it not? that of the myriads who
Before us pass'd the door of Darkness through,
Not one returns to tell us of the Road,
Which to discover we must travel too.
