[A friend of yours is badly injured, and Uriah has agreed to help. His...green glowy stuff...seems to be stopping them from actually getting WORSE, but not properly healing them.]
I fear this injury is too great for my talents alone. I shall do what I can, but we must seek a more potent cure, or lose your friend to the darkness.

[Oh right also Uriah is an alien. Three arms, five red eyes, hooves, greenish-brown skin, three fingers per hand. Ever met an alien]
I apologize. I understand Vortigaunts may appear...unnerving to humans who have never encountered such entities. I mean you no harm.

I am called Uriah.

[Uriah is poking at some bit of technology. A plasma screen TV, perhaps.]
Truly, the humans' mastery of metals is astounding. I am in awe at your solutions to your short-comings.

[The only desperate plan anyone could come up with involves someone staying behind to die so everyone else can escape. Uriah raises a hand.]
I do not fear the interval of darkness. I would be honored to sacrifice this life, that you may escape.

[The injured person could be anyone considering the canons at play here, but just for fun let's say it was some rebar through the torso, Tomb Raider-style.]

If we had something better than your fuckin' healing rays, we'd already be using it! What do we need, the fountain of youth or something?

I got it from context

A supply of the larval extract would be ideal. As the ant lions do not infest this land, we shall have to make do with a human doctor.

Shut up I can fix what I wanna fix

Easier said than done... last time I checked, most of our medics have it as bad as this kid.

[Yes, the four foot tall teenager just called the wounded probably-adult in question a kid. Because are you gonna fucking say something about it, vorty?]

There's an abandoned hospital downtown. If we raided it, maybe somebody could use the supplies without shitting it up.
