Sympathetic Wounds
Hi!
I'm reading a sci-fi book and one of the characters is described to have "sympathetic wounds blister" his skin.
What does that mean? What research I did made me think that it could refer to sympathetic magic, as in his wounds are the mirror match of those he inflicted on his enemy.
I'll be very grateful for any explanation!
