Usually, the two White Mages in NR

Spoiler:

are immortal

by design. I can not look at the replay right now but it should go like this:

Spoiler:

When Sister Thera or Father Morvin are killed, a witty bit of dialogue appears and they are brought back in proximity to each other.

This can be easily "exploited" aka become part of the strategy especially on harder difficulties.

Always happy to discuss NR with anyone, my favourite campaign.

i know that. but that is the problem.they dont show up again,if they get killed at the border of the map.they are jumping to an hex that is not onj the map.when the remaining mage gets also killed he shows up near Tallin

Yeah, it seems that there is a bug when they are on the edge. I'll look into it.

You know, your magi could be behind your line healing and illuminating. They would be more help there. Having them out in front where they die every turn isn't really helping you.

EDIT: I submitted a bug report, but it's a relatively minor problem, so it might not be fixed soon. Since the dead mage ends up on your recall list, it isn't a disaster. You could even use debug commands to give yourself 20 gold so you can recall him. That wouldn't be cheating if it compensates for a bug.

EDIT: This has been fixed in 1.11.16.
