A Stony Predicament (event)
Over the past few weeks, I have suffered from the effects of a mysterious malady. My hands have slowly but surely become numb, while also taking on a dark and sickly coloration, not to mention their now stonelike texture. My mouth along with a few other areas of my body have taken on similar characteristics, and each day is worse than the last. At times, it is too difficult to accomplish even basic tasks without aid, much to my chagrin. A cursory reading quickly tells me of the affliction I suffer from, Elthiadd's Ash, and recommends that I refrain from further use of magic for the time being and keep the afflicted areas moist.
"Best not to overdo it from now on."
