unascended

Not yet risen

Unascended describes something or someone that has not ascended—not risen, not climbed, not achieved a higher state.

The word appears in mountaineering for peaks not yet summited: Several unascended routes remain on the north face.

In spiritual and fantasy contexts, it describes beings who haven't reached an elevated plane of existence: The unascended masters still walk among mortals.
