1, why the heck did we spend all this time healing if we aren't going to heal anyone?

I knew a lot about Healing. I bandaged cuts and held arteries closed until the Academy healers arrived. It was a good thing I was there since I'm pretty sure I saved some lives.
(Fame +1, Mage Guild +25, Healing +10)

Master Lacius, the Archmage of the Academy, called me into his office. His raven, Ciel, was perched on his shoulder. The bird watched me with her black eyes as I entered.

"A tragic occurrence," he said to me. "I have always found it difficult to understand why Healing isn't taught in a formal classroom setting. It's only custom that has dictated Healing to belong to clerics and priests. Nothing should prevent wizards from learning this magic as well."

He paused for a moment, as though studying me, his fingers lightly scratching his neatly trimmed brown beard. "Would you be interested in taking some Healing courses if we were to start offering them?"

1) I said yes.
2) I said no.

Do they ever explain WHY healing is only for clerics and priests?

Because... uhhh... this accident and them so quickly changing their minds... sort of start to poke a few holes in this plot.

1! This is the first actual plot development that occurred by our character's own actions.

You know how in fantasy settings there's always one type of magic that makes people go crazy and start cackling and losing their noses and stuff? But usually it's, like, necromancy or blood magic or babymancy? Well...

(I have no idea, actually.)

1! Because it'd be weird and out of character for us not to go to classes for the thing we made a point of studying even when it wasn't offered.

The only reason I can think of is fantasy stereotyping, which the game seems awfully fond of doing.

Actually, i think 2 is the best option here, since our Healing is already high enough that we will probably
max it way before the end. (and taking more classes probably would hurt our other skills)

Our little troll is clearly better at healing that her teachers, we should be teaching them.

1.)

Let's get that heal up high. I doubt it would effect our other classes that much.

My dream had come true. I had always wanted to be a great healer, and now the Academy was offering to teach me. I was given brand-new courses where I studied Healing from priests of various faiths. Archmage Lacius set it all up, and I learned a lot.
(Healing +30)

I remember the day I heard a knock upon my door.

1) My parents came to visit.
2) It turned out to be a mistake. They were at the wrong door.

2. Out parents hate us, remember? And we quit the family necromancy and did the opposite?
