Owner

The heal form (GHY REN, #slice-2b) currently gives only a green floating +N over the caster — no cast animation. Add the real UO heal effect (sparkle) reused via the asset pack, mirroring the fireball projectile/explosion pipeline.

Extract the UO heal effect art (AssetExtractor statics/effect range) and pack it under effect/heal_*.
Client: on the Healed message, play the sparkle over the caster (like ActiveEffect for the bolt), alongside the existing green number.

See the spell-VFX direction (reuse UO effect art). Follow-up to the heal slice.

Definition of Done

Casting heal plays a visible sparkle/animation on the caster in-game (not just the number).
The effect art loads from the pack with a graceful fallback when the pack is absent.
