arcturusfelire:

In my view, yes it does matter how the events happened. In the
book there is no mention of it being AK. Nor is their a mention
that he was dead before going into the Veil. Because his death
was not directly substantiated he could be alive. We don't know
what the Veil does or where it leads to and so we don't know what
happened to him after he went into it - not directly, in universe
through a non-partial source of absolute truth.

So yes, it does matter if they have it be the green light of AK
or some other spell that knocked him unconscious or made him
unable to act.
