They've left him alone in his cell.
He can't really be said to be lucid but he has very acute instincts for when there's someone and when he's alone - it's the last of his senses to depart him - and he's alone.
And then suddenly he isn't.

Okay.
She heals the scarring and remaining damage, and then carefully adds bulk to a few of them to make it easier to keep a more natural posture. How's that?
Do you feel off-balance, did it make anything feel different in a way you're going to have trouble putting up with for the next while, is there anything I seem to have missed that'd make it better - I expect that's much better than what you were dealing with an hour ago, but it's not completely fixed and this might not be the very best way to leave it.
There's a lot of work to be done; getting things into better alignment definitely helped, but it'd still almost be easier to list what couldn't use healing. She is definitely going to murder a god, but for now she does a quick survey to get an idea of what's in the worst functional shape and what's having the most impact on the things around it.
Okay, she sends, opening her eyes, done for today.
Sigh.
If the problem is that you don't want to risk telling the Enemy things about how you work - maybe have me do several things, and don't let me know which one is the one that actually helps?
No, that's not the problem. It helped. I just - accepting the premise this is real - dislike anyone having that much detail on what happened -
Ah. Yeah. I don't know how much this helps, but I'm not going to tell anyone, and I don't think worse of you for any of it.
All right.
We can do the next bit in a couple days - let me know if anything starts hurting in the meantime, though, please.
And off she goes. She keeps their meetings short for the next few days; she's busy enough that that's not particularly strange.
