[So whatever it was coming through the rifts did to suppress a being's power, in fact, allow curses to pass through. That was the assumption Daqiang had had when he first came through and could feel emotions - though he knew now that at least some of those emotions were his own and not Orchid's. But having it confirmed was good.

He made a small hum of acknowledgement as he thought further, then offered:]

It is possible you may be able to find or have a magical treasure crafted to suppress the curse even if it cannot be cured. If you are of the Corsairs, you may be able to find some aid with their healers. Several months ago, when this venerable one first arrived, Captain Randell Red-Lord's lost treasure was found. The treasure was a chest of coins that could cure some curses simply by touching the coin. The healers of Nogard acquired them. These coins cannot cure stronger curses and as this venerable one said, it is unlikely they can cure the one you came from. However, the loose organization that are the healers of Nogard may be able to use whatever insights they've drawn from them to suggest ways of temporarily suppressing the curse. Perhaps specific circumstances that it will not activate even if you are doused with water.

[Daqiang himself had kept one of the coins to help cure any smaller curses he or his crew may encounter. But the rest were sold off since there was no correlation between quantity of coins and power of curse cured.]
