Malachi checks out the thug's headwound. It doesn't look too bad. It's been stitched up fairly well and has stopped bleeding. He likely had a concussion earlier, but that seems to be gone now, save for the man's mention of "drums." He should only need a touch of healing to make him good as new.
Turning back to the man lying on the bed, Malachi considers. The man is pale; he's lost a lot of blood, and he's likely to lose more before his wounds close, even with the stitches. Plus, his chest has not yet been stitched. Also, with such large, deep wounds and such improvised bandages (did they just grab a blanket off the bed?), he'll be prone to infection. This man certainly needs Malachi's strongest effort.
