Dermal Dilemma

A [[rotting disease]] has struck Port Maraisa and is generating strife in the city. Is this an unfortunate natural event, or is there some foul play at work?

Notes

• The disease leaves bark-like scars when the lesions go away
• Mother Verduna claims the disease isn’t contagious, but Delridge claims folks who visit the The Lazaretto get the disease. ¹
• Delridge states that Mother Verduna believes the disease is an infection from the plants. ²
• Travel to The Lazaretto to have a conversation with Mother Verduna about staying healthy while traveling to and from the Southern Beacon.

Tasks

• Investigate the The Lazaretto
• Ask around town about folks getting sick: Who is getting sick? Any common behaviors or traits?
• Meet Delridge at The Big Tree at about midnight on the evening of Eliant 24 to take a boat across the river to The Lazaretto. This cost us 15GP.
• Talk with Mother Verduna at the Lazaretto about how we might help.
