My Lady,
I shall address the issue of utmost importance first. Was the boy perhaps fighting a ghost?
I mean, there are numerous types of ghosts, some of which cannot be seen, and this boy may be gifted with some sort of supernatural sight to see and do battle with such a ghost, and if that is so, then his wound is a mark of his supreme bravery, but wounds can be healed anyway, as I know very, VERY well because I pride myself in being such an accomplished healer, but you already know that, and yet I cannot help but wonder if perhaps this boy was even POSSESSED by a ghost and was simply in the early stages of a violent spree, but if you think about it, that would make sense, because Taldor has had its share of trouble with the undead, and maybe his wounding himself was simply a valiant effort to protect us all by keeping his "condition" under control so that he would not harm the rest of us, but should you decree that this should be investigated, I remain ready and at your service should the boy need any evil spirits purged from his body through a means that doesn't involve killing him.
Almost as deeply concerning as this, however, is indeed our upcoming business in the Worldwound. It sounds as if our upcoming crusade, however successful, will likely be a bloody one. I shall stand at the ready to provide healing and protection to the Pathfinder Society, Taldor, and all of their allies.
Always at your service,
Baron Brimbli the Bedeviled
P.S. I now see that your first point was in service to a metaphor, but please do not overlook the possible and important implications of this boy's struggle.
