Giovanni stood still as the lady had requested... at least until there was the flash of light and color, then reflexively he did stumbled a step backward. Fortunately the unconscious action did not move him far enough away to avoid the healing magic. The bleeding did stop and the pain eased.
But, for a moment after the spell had taken affect he found himself at a loss for words. His hand moved from the wound as Giovanni gaped in amazement at the injury that suddenly seemed less serious than it had been. It did not begin bleeding again even when the pressure was removed? What kind of marvel was this?
After a moment's stunned shock he found his voice again.
"Grazie, signora. I do not know what you did but it does seem to have helped."
But, it's magic! He's never seen anything like it!
