I have several questions...

How difficult is it to set a broken bone? What sort of strength is needed? What works as a splint? A wide, strong piece of wood? Would Vror need someone to hold him steady as Athwen set the bone? How painful is it? Would he need something to bite, like the Dr. Maturin gives Blakeney when he amputates his arm in Master and Commander?

Any suggestions or answers would be appreciated. If none of you know, at least give me your opinions so I can have more than my own opinion to form my post off of.

Anyhow, when I finish this post, I'm going to take it all the way through Vror's arm being set.
