 * 1) She WAS in a hospital like all the other 10,000 players. Just that she was not logged out properly.
 * 2) SAO was hacked during the log out phase, since the server security was disabled at that time. 300 people were redirected to ALO instead of being logged out like the rest.
 * 3) Heathcliff disabled the death rule before his duel with Kirito because he wanted to talk to them after the battle.
