'''Greater Heal''' is a priest healing spell. It is the largest single-target direct heal available to the class, and the spell of choice if your target needs a large amount of healing, but isn't in any immediate danger. In the triumverate of single target heals it is the ''big hammer'' healing tool, as opposed to the much more affordable but weaker [[Heal]], and the faster but more expensive [[Flash Heal]].

We tried bringing in some wild game, but they haven't fared well at all. There's just no food for them to eat. Now the nearby spiders - which were already dangerous - are getting big and fat on chicken meat.

We'll never get rid of all the spiders, but we can salvage what few chickens remain. Not only will you be feeding the [[Thorium Brotherhood|Brotherhood]], you'll be saving them a painful death by spider bite.
