He silently mused to himself as he gradually became aware of his now flawless body—one free from wounds and blemishes.

In just a fleeting instant—a heartbeat, even—a man who looked as though he was on death's doorstep had transformed into someone perfectly healthy, as though he had never been injured at all.
"This... how is this possible?" Caelan muttered in disbelief.
