What's known is that Erandis was killed and her mother made her into a lich to save her. So it wasn't the standard ritual or process wizards used to turn themselves into liches, and was likely tied to her mother's own Mark of Death. Personally, I've always said that Erandis' form of lichdom is unusual in that she doesn't actually regenerate next to her phylactery, but rather at a random point. As her mother knew that she'd have dragons and the Undying Court after her, my thought is that her phylactery is incredibly shielded and well hidden, to the point that even Erandis doesn't know where it is... with the side effect that even Erandis can't end her own life. If you tie the deva in, then the deva could actually BE the phylactery - as long as the deva continues to exist, Erandis will as well. And the final step of sealing that deal is to have the deva kill her that first time.</blockquote>
