The spiritual and the physical are often construed as opposing realms, like day and night. In reality, especially regarding the world of art, the spiritual is capable of meaning more than one may realize. In this case, when the user clearly understands their intent and can visualize the object they wish to fix, they are able to dive into the spirit world and retrieve the desires of the creator of this object and re-well them back into the object, revitalizing it's dutiful spirit and repairing it in the process.
Luci has often reported catching glimpses of the original creators and designers obsessing over their work as she fixes the object of her current obsession.
However, there is always a chance that when pulling those spiritual desires, one may unintentionally drag along some unwanted baggage that may stick with them for longer than a few seconds.

When using this power Ajax must first connect deeply with the world around him and draw upon his own divine essence. Through his senses, he reaches for the subtle threads of life that weave through the world. His hands begin to glow faintly, the green light becoming more intense as the energy gathers at his fingertips. As his fingertips graze over the injuries they are suddenly met with the soft petals of blooming flowers and moist moss as plants erupt from the wounds.
This power was not meant to heal mortals and as such has disturbing effects on the average person. The overflow of sudden vitality causes the wound to flood with blood and make disturbing squelching sounds as the plants greedily drink it up. If the plants are exposed to extreme temperatures they will shrivel and die causing the injury to relapse. After a month of proper care they fall off on their own, similar to a scab.
Ajax's journey to the mortal plane was in search of Nature's Salvation and while he envisioned himself as the solution it seems he isn't yet ready to cure his Mother's illness. Drawing upon the restorative powers of his divine essence he discovered that the root of the problem wasn't within his ability to heal. His power is able to fix the broken bodies of mortals with ease but has not provided his Mother solace from the pain she suffers as he had hoped. Even though he can't heal the overarching sickness affecting Mother Nature, it offers a moment of peace, healing those in need and providing a glimpse of Nature’s resilience and power to survive.

Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Perception + Occult at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. If you reduce its Severity to 0, the Injury is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.
This counts as a successful Makeshift Stabilization if the Injury was not already Stabilized; any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will remain. Your patient is required to avoid being exposed to extreme temperatures for the next month. If they violate this rule, your treatment is immediately reversed.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see the patients skin wriggles and writhes before plants burst through the wound as blood pours out. Horrific squelching sounds will come from the wounds as the plants drink the blood.
