Cid - Self-healing

I check the gash on my back. I let him cut me because I knew I might be examined up close. I avoided getting fatally injured, of course, but it was deep enough to be convincing.

I try using my magic to heal myself. It looks like my magic can get around the barrier if I process it in teeny-tiny amounts. Alternatively, if I apply pressure and release magic, I think I’ll be able to remove the membrane by force.

“Good enough for now.”

It’ll take too long for them to completely heal, and I’ll be in a tough spot if someone catches me in the act. I heal to the point where I have no trouble moving, and with my trusty “I-somehow-miraculously survived” routine, I should be good to go.
