Have you been able to purify someone in full beasthood? [the fact it's just something he can do is fascinating- a mage then? an innate ability in his dna like some? he doesn't seem to be a holy man or something of that sort.] Forgive my nosiness, purification is something I study. I will likely ask far too many questions, if given the chance.
