Jul 23, 2019 Whatever, your emotional or physical tension is, healing spells can assist you in removing it so that you can feel better. The small things that seemed huge at one point of time will no longer matter. All this can be achieved with the help of healing spells for emotional and physical wellbeing. The way it's intended to work is that it gives you mana equal to 10% of healing received by other friendly players, which does not include overhealing. This means if a spell heals you for 1000 of which 800 is actual healing done and 200 overhealing, you should receive 80 mana, after the portion that was NOT overhealing.

Templars now have roughly the same shield as sorcs with the light armor skill Annulment. And with the 6 second duration its not effective using them both.
A/N: Hello again! Couldn't quite wait a week, so I'm updating :) I have a lot of these chapters already written, so I can pretty much throw one out whenever.
Thank you for all the reviews and the alterts :) You've made me very happy (I got a lot of hits too, so thank you for giving me a chance!)
And feel free to ask me questions. I shall answer if I'm capable of doing so :)
And yes, eventually I shall show how Arthur found out. I have the whole scene planned, just not written, mainly because I can't figure out where I want to stick it, as it could fit in multiple places (it would likely be a chapter all on its own). So really, if anyone spots a place where they really think I should throw it in, say something and I'll consider it :)
Let's take care of this part again:
Title: Healing Spells
Author: BeyondTheStorm
Rating: T for some violence and bloodshed later on
Characters/pairings: Only friendship here :) Lots of Merlin and Arthur, and quite a bit of Gwen too, with some Morgana and a little bit of Gaius.
Spoilers: Um..lets just say everything up through 2x07, but I don't think I'll be mentioning much at all, really.
Warnings: Still not in this chapter or any coming up real soon, but this story will contain a bit of non-suicidal self-harm, but only in one or two chapters, and I'll have a special warning up for them. Other than that, um..blood? Is that a warning? Not a ton though.

Please leave a review if you feel so inclined. I've no right to ask, as I'm a terrible reviewer, but I do love them so.
Just a note: I'll be using italics when writing out the notes that Merlin makes, as that just seemed to fit, and the way I wrote them is entirely intentional. If the line breaks bother you, please tell me and I'll change them, but I wanted each one separated and I couldn't find a better way to do it.
Disclaimer: Property of the BBC. Not mine. I own nothing but the plot behind this fic, and in all honesty, I'm pretty sure it owns me, not the other way around.
This chapter is a bit shorter than the previous one, but not by much. The chapters will likely grow longer and longer the further I go. It's just something that happens when I write :)
Enjoy!
CHAPTER 2
Day 1…
Merlin sat on his bed with his magic book open before him, a piece of spare parchment resting on it and a quill in his hand. He kind of wanted to write his notes in the book itself so as not to lose them, but he was pretty sure that Gaius would kill him for doing so. The book was ancient and important. He really shouldn't deface it like that, even in a helpful manner.
…Works well on small cuts and bruises. The cuts are gone and the bruises have almost completely faded.
He had been sparring with Arthur earlier in the day and had managed to earn himself quite a few small nicks and a lot of bruises. It was rather normal, really. He wasn't that great with a sword, but he was learning, slowly but surely. If he had thought that Arthur would go easy on him though after finding out what he was, he had certainly been wrong. It almost seemed like the prince had been a bit more brutal than before, but that was fine. It gave him plenty to practice with.
There really weren't all that many healing spells, or at least not as many as he had expected. Open wounds had their own spell and so did bruises, but there really weren't separate spells for the seriousness of the injuries. You healed a tiny cut with the same words as a gash. Macintosh dmg images full of games free. The amount of magic that went in was the only difference. There were, however, quite a few different kinds of healing spells in his book. There was one for fighting off infection, one for lessening pain, another to help mend broken bones, and one to stop a wound from bleeding.
That last one worried him a bit. It more or less implied that the general healing spell for open wounds wouldn't work for everything. He wondered how bad a wound had to be for the spell not to work. He would make sure to learn the spell for stopping blood as well, even if he couldn't really put it into much practice (his injuries were rarely that bad). It was still something he needed to know, just in case. Even serious injuries could heal on their own, but they were often fatal due to blood loss. Preventing that would be of great use.
He knew though that not all injuries could be healed. Magic didn't work on all wounds. If someone were injured to the point of near death, like being stabbed through the heart or torn apart, then he wouldn't be able to do anything. Magic was about balance, and he was painfully aware that in order to save one life, another had to be taken. No amount of healing magic could overcome death or save someone on the brink of it, not unless he could find a way to maintain the balance.
There also wasn't a spell for re-growing or reattaching limbs, which was unfortunate. He'd be able to stop the bleeding, but he wouldn't be able to replace the missing body parts. Hopefully he would never be faced with that problem.
After finishing his notes, he set down the quill and closed his book, putting it back in its hiding spot. He would have to experiment a bit more later, because unfortunately he had work to do. Gaius had left him a ton of medicine to hand out, although the physician had thankfully passed out a great deal extra before leaving so that Merlin wouldn't have too much to do. He still had to work for Arthur, after all. He would also need to bring the prince his dinner in an hour or so and finish up his chores, and by then it would be time for him to eat his own meal and get some sleep.
He'd have to practice more tomorrow.
Day 2: Cut my palm open after dropping a bowl. Managed to close the wound, but it's still visible. Repeating the spell did not make it fade.
Burnt my other hand while trying to make lunch. Couldn't find a spell for healing burns, but the one for healing open wounds seems to work fine. The skin peeled a bit, but it healed.
Scraped my arm while carrying Arthur's armor. Wound closed up completely.
Day 3: Went out hunting. Got smacked in the face by a few branches. Fell off the horse on our way back, twisted my ankle (told Arthur it wasn't that bad). The cuts on my face healed fully. The spell for broken bones also seems to work on a twisted ankle when combined with the spell for healing bruises (will ponder this later). Just a dull throb now. Should heal completely tomorrow.

Day 4: Fell down the stairs (ankle was NOT completely healed). Didn't break anything, which is somewhat disappointing, but everything hurt. Tried the spell to ease pain. Note to self: lack of pain does not equal lack of injuries. Made my twisted ankle worse. Will have to stay off it tomorrow. Healed the small cuts, closed the larger ones (still visible but scabbed over), and faded most of the bruises.
Day 5: Ankle still refuses to be healed by magic. No new injuries.
Day 6: Ankle more or less healed, returned to work. Sparred with Arthur again. Healed all cuts and bruises. They all disappeared completely this time (must be getting better at this).
Dropped Arthur's sword. Cut arm open trying to catch it (not seriously hurt). Wound is about four inches long, not too deep. Used the spell that stops the bleeding. Worked after three tries (will have to practice it more). Tried to close the wound. Scabbed over.
Tried to further heal the wound from the sword approximately twenty times, but it won't fade. Will try again tomorrow.
Day 7: No amount of magic will fully heal the wound on my arm. It will have to finish healing naturally. It seems larger wounds will not fade with magic. Will have to come up with a way to test this theory. Will keep trying anyway.
Tried every hour. Eventually the wound faded to just a thin red line. Was only able to heal it a little bit during a few of the attempts. Healing magic seems rather fickle. Will definitely require a lot more practice.
He had been without Gaius for a full week. One week and he had managed not only to make good progress on his healing magic but also had kept all of it hidden, even from Arthur. Most of his wounds he received without anyone knowing, and so it was easy to simply heal them without anyone asking questions. The few he did receive (like that cut to his palm early in the week) where someone had witnessed it, he simply wore bandages to cover up the healed wound. Overall, it had been a successful seven days, and really, there was probably something wrong with the fact that he was now basing his 'success' on the number of times he had managed to injure himself instead of how many times he had avoided injury.
To further prove that it had been a successful week, he also hadn't forgotten to eat any meals, or at least not too many; it was hard to remember. He certainly couldn't remember a time where he had felt like he was starving, so it was probably fine, and in his opinion, he had also gotten plenty of rest, especially after twisting his ankle. Yes, his first week had gone extremely well.
That alone should have been a warning.
When he woke up on the eighth day of Gaius' absence, his head was pounding. He was fairly certain that wasn't natural, since he couldn't remember anything he could have done that would result in a headache (it felt the same as when he drank too much on those few occasions, but he was pretty sure he hadn't had any wine or ale the previous evening).
Unfortunately, the spell for easing pain didn't seem to work all that well for headaches. It dulled a bit but the pain was still mostly there. Even one of Gaius' potions didn't help him much, and so he was forced to make his way to the kitchens with his head pounding.
While waiting for Arthur's breakfast, he started to get tired, which was extremely abnormal seeing as how he had just woken up after a good night's sleep. It certainly didn't do anything to help his headache. He tried to ignore it though, and even when his vision started to blur a bit, he still took hold of the tray when it was offered to him, brushing off the questions concerning his rather questionable state of health.
He almost smacked into Gwen when she came into the kitchens to fetch Morgana's breakfast, and the smile on her face when she greeted him fell a little when he didn't manage to greet her back.
'Merlin,' she began, 'are you alright? You seem rather pale…'
'I'm fine,' he said, though it sounded more like a murmur. His ears were ringing, and he could barely hear what Gwen was saying. That certainly wasn't normal either.
When the tray in his hands clattered against the floor and he followed it not a second later, Merlin was almost a hundred percent certain that something was horribly wrong.
'Merlin!'
Oh. There went his vision.
His last thoughts were something along the lines of Gaius will never let me forget this, please don't let him ever find out and For the love of Camelot, don't tell Arthur before he succumbed to the gentle lull of unconsciousness.
Where is he?
Arthur walked the length of his room once more before turning around and walking back again. He was pacing rather angrily, and he had every right to. After having woken up on his own due to the sunlight streaming in because someone had forgotten to close his curtains last night, he had found himself alone and without breakfast. He had waited for nearly a half an hour more before getting out of bed and dressing on his own, which had put him in a rather foul mood, and it wasn't getting any better the longer he paced.
Merlin was late for work. An hour late, to be exact, and while the act of being late wasn't entirely abnormal for his somewhat lazy servant, the fact that he was over an hour late was. Usually if Merlin wasn't going to show up in the morning, another servant was sent to explain why. It was usually because Gaius had needed him for something urgent, but Gaius wasn't in Camelot. Arthur would have blamed Merlin's lateness on that fact except Gaius hadn't been around for a whole week and Merlin hadn't been late once.
So really, there was no normal explanation for Merlin's lateness, and seeing as he was now over an hour late, Arthur decided that enough was enough. He was starving by now, and although he would never admit it, perhaps he was a bit concerned as well. So if Merlin wasn't going to come to him, he would simply have to go to Merlin.
With his mind made up, he walked to the door and threw it open, stepping out into the hallway. Unfortunately he didn't get far. At the first intersection, he nearly ran right into Morgana as she was making her way down the halls. Both nobles took a step back, surprised at seeing the other there, and naturally, Morgana was the one to recover first.
'Arthur,' she said in way of greeting.
'Morgana,' he replied, and because he still wasn't in the greatest of moods, he threw in rather bitingly, 'never thought I'd see you up this early.'
'A good morning to you to,' she responded, frowning slightly. 'What has you so worked up this morning?'
'Well, a certain someone seems to have forgotten that it is his job to attend to me and failed to show up with my breakfast.'
He was expecting her expression to morph into something akin to exasperation or perhaps that look she would give him when she thought he was being immature and perhaps a bit prattish (Merlin's word for it, not his), but what he saw was actually quite different. She appeared thoughtful, as if pieces of a puzzle were falling into place.
Why so much dmg in league of legends. 'Strange,' she said, letting the word hang for a bit. 'Gwen hasn't been to attend to me this morning either.'
'She hasn't?' That was a surprise. For as long as Gwen had been Morgana's servant, she had never been late, at least not without an adequate reason. The girl rarely got sick, and so it wasn't often that she failed to show up. With Merlin, being late every so often was a normal occurrence, and so Arthur could mostly just brush it off and not think too much of it. Gwen though was another matter entirely. If she had failed to bring Morgana her breakfast, then something had to have happened. It couldn't be a coincidence, and that pinch of concern he had felt earlier grew a bit more.
'Honestly, I'm a little worried,' Morgana admitted. 'It isn't like her. I was just on my way down to the kitchens to see if something happened and to perhaps find something to eat. You can accompany me if you'd like. We may be able to find Merlin as well.'
Arthur said nothing to that. He would have followed even if Morgana hadn't suggested it. Once again though, he didn't get very far. The two of them were about to start walking again when two maids turned the corner ahead of them, each one with a tray of food. Upon reaching the two nobles, both women bowed respectfully.
'My lord, my lady,' greeted the first girl, the other standing a few steps behind her. 'I apologize for the wait.'
'Is that my breakfast?' asked Arthur a bit hopefully. He was well beyond hungry by this point, his eyes fixed on the trays, one of which had to be his.
'Yes, sire.'
'Where are Gwen and Merlin?' asked Morgana, seeing as how Arthur seemed more focused on the food than on their missing servants at the moment. She had asked it as politely as possible, because she was simply curious and not upset, but that question garnered an interesting reaction anyway. The two maids glanced at each other, fidgeting just slightly, and neither one answered her right away. The first turned back to her, keeping her eyes lowered even more so than necessary.
'There was an…incident in the kitchens this morning which required the prince's breakfast to be remade and yours delayed, my lady. Both Gwen and Merlin are indisposed at the moment, and so Gwen asked if we could deliver these to you.'
Morgana couldn't help but worry, a frown marring her features, whereas Arthur merely scoffed at the explanation.
'An incident?' he mocked. 'I'm pretty sure that's code for 'Merlin, the clumsy oaf that he is, tripped over his own two feet and dropped my breakfast again, and feeling sorry for the idiot, Gwen decided to help him clean it up.' Honestly, this happens at least once a month. I'm sure the fact that he woke up late didn't help matters any.'
The two maids once again exchanged glances, seeming a bit uncomfortable. It was lost on Arthur, who obviously wasn't paying attention, but Morgana easily noticed. It seemed the two of them wanted to say something but were wary of speaking. She got the feeling there was far more to the story.
'Well, come on then,' said Arthur as he turned to head back towards his room. The first girl bowed to Morgana before following after the prince. Morgana waited until both were out of earshot before looking to the other maid.
'Can you tell me what actually happened?' she asked kindly, not wanting to make the younger girl too nervous. The maid shifted her weight a bit, keeping her eyes trained on the floor.
![Spell Spell](/uploads/1/2/5/3/125379783/803021564.png)
'I'm sorry, my lady,' she said softly. 'We were asked not to say anything about the incident itself, especially in front of the prince. We swore, my lady, so please…I can't…'
'I understand. I won't force you to tell me. I just want to know if Gwen and Merlin are alright.'
'I believe they're fine, my lady.'
'Good.' She relaxed a bit, taking the maid's word for it. Later she would ask Gwen about what had happened.
She turned around and motioned for the girl to follow her, making her way to her chambers. She wouldn't ask anymore questions, and hopefully her own handmaiden would answer her queries honestly. The two of them rarely kept things from each other, and if something serious had happened, she wanted to know about it. Whatever had happened, the servants didn't want Arthur to find out, which likely meant that whatever the 'incident' was, Merlin was probably at the center of it.
Its a heal just like BoL but better. Sorc healing will be a thing once DB drops and wards are nerfed. Sorc dps/healer hybrid will become the only legit hybrid in the game post DB imo.
Will probably suck actually. The Ward nerf is a HUGE hit for sorc healers using Twilight. Her health is barely 10k, meaning any half-decent direct attack oneshots her. I usually try to keep Ward on her full time in case something gets loose and hits her, with 20 second duration it's not too hard and ads an element of challenge and having to pay attention in an exchange for BoL-like heal. However with 6 second duration..yeah..I don't think so.
To OP, as been said, Matriarch heal works exactly the same way as that of Clannie, and if I were you I'd go templar for heals. They don't have to depend on a squishy pet for heals and have much more utility for group player and reliable selfheals for solo play.
Sorc healers are better off using the other morph though, that lasts 8seconds instead of 6, and also grants 10% Magicka recovery to yourself and allies.
I'm sure it said in the patch notes too that they were raising the health of pets by like 5k ?
