Warnings: None worth noting yet?



Hello everyone, this is Azul Ashengrotto speaking. I meant to put out this news sooner to everyone, but due to certain events that have taken place, my ability to do so was delayed until now.

[re: he got fucking kidnapped. yes, he's still mad about it, and no, he doesn't want to talk about it right this second.]

As some of you may know, there are very few things that I as a mage would be considered incapable of brewing, enchanting, or crafting a spell or potion for. [nice ego fluffing there azul] It came to my attention last month that there was a string of incidents involving the "Thornbind" disease that had begun to crop up: for those unaware, it causes vines and thorns to grow from the infected person's body and can be extremely dangerous if left unchecked.

Luckily, I have managed to develop a cure that has proven successful after the tests I've done with it and from checking in on the people that I have given it out to thus far among the locals. Thus, if you or anyone else you know of are in need of it, please let me know. Anyone that would be willing to help with delivering the medicine to people, or to any of the nearby clinics and hospitals would also be quite appreciated right now.

As for other ailments one may be experiencing in this place
[you know, the brands they've all gotten lately, which he is not going to discuss too loudly here just to be safe] ... well, that may require more research and discussion among other like-minded mages or researchers like myself to come up with a solution for. But as always, my door is always open to any soul in need of a specific wish granted on your behalf, so please do not hesitate to ask if you have any requests to make for me here.

[Sorry, even in text form and while recovering from stuff, Azul has to play the businessman.]

That would be most appreciated.

There have been many such ailments. I recall one in particular. A sickness that plagued its victims with vivid nightmares of drowning, while their bodies grew bloated and waterlogged despite never coming into contact with water.

With more of these strange afflictions emerging, I believe it would be prudent to do this. A comprehensive reference detailing each illness, its symptoms, and most importantly, how to treat them.

[It was Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad time.]

As far as I know, the number of cases have decreased drastically.

[But there are still a few cases out there!]

That is what I hope to do. Your discovery of a cure for the Thornbind affliction will be an invaluable addition. It will help immensely.

Perhaps I should ask you first... Are you with the paladins or corsairs?

I see.

Then perhaps it would serve us well to bide our time ... or continue the conversation here.

I agree, we will have to put this on hold until current situations unfold. Until then.
