In the universe of '''[[Lethurèa]]''', no magic, spell, or incantation exists to heal a '''Wounded Heart''', a grievous and often fatal physical injury to the heart. While the advanced healing arts of Lethurèa are capable of mending many wounds that would be fatal in other universes, the heart remains untouchable by conventional methods of restoration.

In the universe of '''[[Lethurèa]]''', no magic, spell, or incantation exists to heal a '''Wounded Heart''', a grievous and often fatal physical injury to the heart. While the advanced healing arts of [[Lethurèa]] are capable of mending many wounds that would be fatal in other universes, the heart remains untouchable by conventional methods of restoration. Be it pierced by an arrow, slashed by a blade, or torn by a projectile, the damage to this vital organ is beyond the reach of ordinary magic or medicine.
The only known cure for a Wounded Heart lies with the divine power of the '''[[It'slémwé]]''', the [[Element of Life]]. This sacred element is said to possess the ability to regenerate even the most critical tissues, including the heart, by infusing life directly into the affected area. However, the It'slémwé is not freely available; it is granted only to select individuals deemed worthy by the higher powers of Lethurèa. These chosen few, known as the '''Bearers of Life''', carry an immense responsibility, as their abilities are often the only hope for those who would otherwise succumb to their injuries.
