The closest single canon entry is alok, glossed as 'arise'. It primarily refers to the skyward motion of a dragon being revived. Give the full sentence for context next time.

So, words.
I used praal because it has nothing to do with death, meaning sitting kind of rest. But there is also 'Praan' to rest as in lying, maybe or may not indicate death. And "Nok" which only means the rest of death.

If you mean to wake from death, use nok; if you mean awake from a nap, use praal. Praan is tricky, because it has both meanings. If you want this word, make sure the words around it are clean about what kind of waking up is being done.
