[Elliot will now DIE FOR YOU. Mikleo isn't going to turn him down just because he's feeling a little prickly though, he knows he was in the wrong.]

Not long after I got here, I ventured outside the wall with someone and he ended up getting hurt. I didn't really know anything beyond the most basic of healing spells and I was having trouble casting because of the corruption, but I channeled everything I had into healing-- and it worked. I healed my friend's wounds that day and I shouldn't have been able to do that.

As it turns out, healers here use blood-- theirs or their patient's-- as a way to boost the effectiveness of their magic. Unfortunately, I couldn't control it and ended up being unable to use my magic for a week or so. I completely wore myself out.

Blood and water aren't that different. That makes it even more important that you know what you're getting into.

[No that's Rean. Elliot will just heal you because he's not dumb.

He'll be a good student, listening to the story. He makes a bit of a concerned face when Mikleo talks about going outside the wall so soon. He'd been out of the wall a couple times by now, but never alone and always cautious of his environment.]

Sounds like you guys got really lucky...

[It's a good thing they did. He liked Mikleo, and he didn't want anything to happen to the person he was with either.]

Blood huh. That's...definitely different than how healing arts worked back in my world. [Also, pretty gross.] I can see why they don't teach it often in class...

[That's something that could easily be exploited or twisted in the wrong hands. He saw a boy get kidnapped and forcibly shoved into a corrupted divine knight because of his bloodline. Goddess knows what someone like Duke Cayenne would do with a piece of knowledge like this.]

I'll keep it in mind though. Thank you for telling me.

Yes. And before you get any ideas, we did catch hell for it.

[He nods.]

Witch blood is powerful in itself, too. It's dangerous, but if someone is going feral you might be able to calm them with a small amount.

[He smiles faintly.]

From one healer to another.
