Great for many things, but won't do a lot for a broken bone.

Take a look at the page on Healing in the rulebook (p81). There's a distinction between Minor and Major magical healing. Common magic can do Minor, but not Major. And Hurt is the lowest level of injury.

Not that they can improv *new* feats, of course. But yes, that's what I see, too. And I work on the assumption that anyone with high affinity levels is probably concentrated.

Exactly! Great story!

I'm not quite sure about that, either. They'd know that your king would do the same as their deity - but if the deity is known for doing the unexpected? Vinga being the obvious example to my mind, but I'm sure there are others. (Well, there's Eurmal, but a Trickster King is something I just don't want to think about!)
