A Booklet On Treating Wounds.

[Endovelicus 613]

In libraries in all Athera a book is seen. As you open it, it reads:

 

Healing wounds.

 

By Father Kristoff of Leuvaarden.

 

Slashing wounds:

 

When one is wounded in the limbs the best thing to do is to is amputate, although everyone knows that I doubt that they know how to do it correctly.

 

Step I, stop blood flow.

 

This one is simple, but necessary, a  rope will do this job just fine, you tie it around the arm, leg, wrist whatever.This will stop blood flow and make the job less messy.

 

Step II, use a clean cutting tool.

 

This one is important, use a rust free and dirt free and blood free tool, this will reduce the risks of infection.

 

Step III, amputate it quickly.

 

This needs to be done quickly, although don’t cut what you don’t need to cut.

 

Step IV, stop the bleeding.

 

If you don’t stop the bleeding the injured will die. Here’s how to do it:

 

First clean your hands from dirt or any impurity.Then apply pressure with a clean cloth until the bleeding stops.If blood soaks through the cloth use two cloths or just a really thick one.

 

Step V, use a bandage.

 

You’ll need a bandage to close the wound and to prevent things to get in.Wrap it around it tight so that there’s no more bleeding and dirt doesn’t get in, change the bandage from time to time.

 

Step VI, pray.

 

Pray to the Almighty Creator asking that the man or woman may survive.

 

For chest or not too dangerous legs/arms wounds.

Step I, stop the bleeding,

 

Same step as Step IV.

 

Step II, take out dead flesh,

 

After the bleeding as stop, apply maggots, they eat the dead and rotting meat, thus reducing infection risk.

 

Step III, close the wound.

 

For that you use a needle and thread. Remember to clean needle either by placing it in a open flame or on boiling water. You then sew the wound with clean thread.

 

If the wounds isn’t too deep you can simply press a hot iron against it, it will hurt the injured but it’s effective.

 

Step IV, bandage up.

 

Again, pick up a clean bandage and wrap it around the wounded area.

 

Step VI, pray.

 

May the Almighty Creator let the man live.

Gwen reads the handbook, and wrinkles her nose in disgust, tossing it in her fireplace, which is lit mostly with human bible pages for kindling. "Whoever wrote this is a total moron..."

[GodEmperorFlam 3447]

"The injured should pray to the Creator that they have a more competent doctor than whoever wrote this..."

"Yep, yep, Seems-... Seems pretty comprehensive. Good job."

Asher blinks as he reads the book, slowly closing it after he finishes reading. "I-.. I uhh.. Yeah.. This is a very-.. Okay.." He slowly sets the book back in the fiction section, face palming lightly as he strides off.

((The part of 'pray to the creator' isn't as much about healing.It's just a little touch I left there.Don't take it literaly. Plus it was written by a priest.

((I know, it was just a sarcastic comment that my character was making :P Since with the current lore of alchemy and herbs, coupled with the various magics that assist in the healing process, amputation and the other ways your character has suggested dealing with the injuries seems rather barbaric.))

((Well he isn't a magic user, plus it's for quick healing when one doesn't have herbs or know magic. It was aimed mostly for humans that have little understanding of alchemy/magic.))

Lorien reads this with a quirked eyebrow, and an astounded face.

 

"It is of great fortune that a man such as this was not my doctor during my time of need. Only fate knows what remaining limbs I would have, today, if I had been given the treatment that this booklet so avidly encourages"

 

He shudders, throwing the booklet into the fire, next to Gwen. The elf's face scrunches up slightly at the sight of the woman. His next words are directed towards her.

 

"Never thought I would ever say this...but I agree with you...creature."
