Golem, like all other lifeless items, do not heal as organisms do, even though they have many lifelike characteristics. Further, since they are not technically alive, traditional healing techniques or magic have little to no effect on them. Channellers are able to fix this problem with a minor spell that creates an energy link between them and the golem. A rod of the same material as the golem forms the bridge the energy flows along, and it is known that some rods work better than others. It is worth noting that golems cannot cast this spell upon themselves. Cast transformation affects the healing process.
