Great Runes do not stop working permanently, but they do become inactive upon your character's death. To reactivate a Great Rune, you'll need to use a Rune Arc. These items can be obtained through exploration, defeating enemies, or as rewards, and using them will restore the powers of the Great Rune until your next death.
