grants ... auto by nearestafter Heal by holder when event.landed

A healer that heals on its own, paying in energy, lifted from the RTS slice's content\medic.ledger (Mend, Tending and the medic). It heals the nearest hurt living ally of flesh (Bio) within 4, 4 a quarter second, with no order: an auto, ranked by nearest. It pays a third of what landed in energy, so a heal that lands nothing costs nothing. The slice's medic regains energy; this one doesn't, so the price reads plainly.
