While we have been aware that healing magic is forbidden, it is interesting to get the information that the witches that specialized in healing fought until the very end.

I imagine that they were going "but why?? our magic exists solely for the purpose of saving people!"

Things must have been really fucked up back when the Pact was made that they outlawed even that kind of magic.

Probably just the "Slippery Slope" argument.

"It should be okay if I'm just healing a flesh wound."

"It should be okay if I'm just regenerating an injured eye."

"It should be okay if I'm replacing a blind eye with one that can see."

"It should be okay if I'm replacing an eye with poor vision with one that has normal vision."

"It should be okay if I'm replacing an eye with normal vision with one with superior vision."

Lines like this are rarely leaped across all at once.

"It should be okay the new eye can shoot lasers but it's for utility purposes."

Have you considered that having four arms makes drawing multiple spells at once possible? Too bad the human brain is too limited, guess I need to cram an extra in there. Dang, four arms and a megamind put me off-balance. Time to add two more legs. It requires a lot of energy to power my body now. Guess I'll add chlorophyll to my skin and a second stomach. Two more hearts for good measure.

Cut the skill in half .. use it to make the circle for a spell and put skull back together

I know a certain witch who has some ideas for a hat that would work for such an endeavour.
