In addition to an accelerated healing rate, any major injuries Grace sustains are “fixed” by Obedience’s form taking the place of the affected area. The restored eyes, limbs, organs, or whatever else may go appear just as Obedience’s: bluish and semi-transparent, but now functioning just as the respective physical flesh would. Currently, her left eye, middle right finger, and most of her intestinal tract have been replaced.
This restoration is the biggest key to the girls' goal that they’ve gotten so far. The bond they want so badly is within their reach- all it takes is getting hurt badly enough. Rather than opting to chop off Grace’s limbs in the name of it (which they could theoretically survive), the menagerie decided to continue Contracting so they can get hurt in ways that might mean something more. She could protect her friends, discover new things, or even deal with the massive problem she unleashed on the world.
