Creature in this world can be born purely from emotions, it's a weird thing to be surprised about it. The finality of death is partly romanticism that life is special because death comes eventually.
That is the thing with worlds like these, death is more of a journey than a end. Particularly here, death just gives you an additional template. Mayoi was a human, who died and became a ghost, which became an oddity.
It depends on how you want to view death as a concept, since none of us alive know what lies on the other side, we make these setpieces in fantasy.
