Is there any spell to bring back a disintegrated character?
$begingroup$
In our latest session, one of our PCs got hit by a Disintegrate ray from an Undead Beholder. This dealt the exact damage needed, and so his character got disintegrated. Naturally, we are all sad that we lost a party member, but on top of that, my character was also in love with said PC, and, now heartbroken, will go to the edges of the earth to bring the PC back.
I'm aware of multiple spells that bring back characters from the dead (Revivify, True Ressurection, etc.), however, they all require either a body, or a part of the body.
Is there a spell that can bring back a disintegrated character? Or do I have to consult the DM for other options?
My character is a lvl4 Druid, however, any spells will suffice, since I am willing to pay other people to cast the spell for me.

True Resurrection works
You mention that you have nothing of the body left. Well, that's not entirely true because you still have ashes, which most DMs would rule as being 'part of the body of the original character'.
But even if that wasn't the case, you can still use true resurrection on them.
The spell can even provide a new body if the original no longer exists, in which case you must speak the creature's name. The creature then appears in an unoccupied space you choose within 10 feet of you.
Simply casting Resurrection might not do the trick. It says it will 'restore any missing bodyparts', so perhaps your DM will be generous and say that if you bring some ash from the creature, everything else classifies as 'a missing bodypart', but True Ressurection should work regardless of what you do or do not classify disintegrated ash as.

Ash remains obviously count as "piece of the body"
You touch a dead humanoid or a piece of a dead humanoid. Provided that the creature has been dead no longer than 10 days, the spell forms a new adult body for it and then calls the soul to enter that body.
It is a 5th level spell, so it will be easier to find someone who can cast this than true resurrection. However, the target will have different body and face, and most likely entirely different race, something more than your character can brace, but that will likely make a good story for another time and place.
