World of Origin Sel

“Resealing repairs a body and makes it anew.”

—An unnamed Grand surgeon

Resealing is a form of magic on Sel practiced by surgeons skilled in the art of Forgery. This subset of Forgery allows the practitioner to repair damage to the human body. It is also called "Flesh Forgery" by the MaiPon.

While Resealing can heal powerfully, even allowing Emperor Ashravan to survive a crossbow bolt to the head, it only repairs physical damage. After a traumatic brain injury like Ashravan's, the mind remains empty, and requires the forging of a new soul to return the subject to functionality.

Resealing requires a great deal of skill and specialization. According to Shai, a Forger has to know everything about the body of the subject, including the placement of veins, muscles, and sinew in order to properly perform Resealing.

“Get a Flesh Forgery wrong, and people died.”
