A Cardacci healer of the Third Crusade who could take others’ wounds onto herself — soldiers were scalded again and again, and she took their wounds again and again. When her own brother was among the dying, she chose to let him die so she could keep taking others’ wounds. “Faith before Family.” (S7, per The Sun Without Shadow, an elaborately illuminated Cardacci account)
The scalding detail sits beside the same book’s “horror of the rising of the Goat Sun” — see The Red Star for what that might have been.
