Mr. Death:
I don't think Michael physically healed Harry at all. His arm's still busted, after all. I think all he did there was drive Tessa away.

That's the impression I got. What Michael says during that scene is "Lava quod est sordium." Roughly translated from an amateur, it's essentially "Cleanse that which is unclean." Literally translated, it's "Wash the dirt/filth." That got rid of the Tessabugs. It's followed up with simple faith magic/prayer, which calms Harry and buys him enough time to put his pain blocks back up.

That is a good point. I was thinking that Michael had inadvertently healed Harry's back, but if he didn't heal Harry's arm then he most likely didn't heal his back either. And yes, that was the time I was referring to when Michael cleansed Harry from Tessa.
I do wonder what the knock down effects having Uriel's Grace within Michael will have, and having Michael exercising it, sometimes on Harry, sometime against Tessa and others. One could argue that had Tessa been nemfected, Michael's pronouncement and curing healed Tessa from nemesis nemfection. We do know Uriel had multiple reasons why he gave up his Grace. I mean, Harry figured it a big deal. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Nemesis had an agent in Skin Game.

If he'd stepped out of bounds the grace would have fallen. They can only balance the scales, they cannot proactively unbalance them I don't think.
raidem:
See. I think Michael was allowed free will. And he could use his free will with the Grace, while Uriel couldn't even do that. Therefore, I see that Michael having the Grace and being in that position has more flexibility than had it reside in Uriel. So, Uriel counted on achieving more with it than he could have done by himself. Of course, the immediate use was to heal Michael so as to allow him to intervene successfully against Nic. I think though Uriel needed to have his Grace on the mission to Hades realm.
