Chapter 452: The Curse (2/2)
”Guess” The Ghost of Jon acted as s as his owner
”You are dead and the world is at peace but you will haunt uessed as he was told
”TaDaaa!” The Ghost of Jon didn't deny it
”What?” Mirren freaked out
”He learned the [Astral Projection] spell” Miranda interrupted
”Oh! You scared ht I'll be haunted for real”
The [Astral Projection] is an Expert level Mysticisrah it The real Jon, who is miles away outside Rimmen, can use the Astral Projection to scout, communicate and even cast some spells
”What do you want?”
”Meet me outside the city to the south at the border pass, there is so you need to see” Jon's projection said then disappeared
The two siblings sighed as they knew deep inside that things are going to get noisy from this point on
A few hours passed until Jon and Isha met up with Mirren and Miranda
The four briefed themselves with the situation on all fronts and made a plan to look around
”So, you said you found out soht Here, take a look” Jon passed his spyglass to Jon
Their location was on a hidden area near the e that separates Elsweyr froreat view of the enca the road to the border pass
”What a for exactly?” Mirren asked
”Do you see the refugees ies?”
”Yes”
”Did you notice what they are?”
”Diseased poor folk?”
”Coain but didn't spot anything strange
Isha used her Aura to look further while Miranda took the spyglass from Mirren
”Aha”
”I see”
”So I a you” Mirren was dissatisfied with Isha's and Miranda's responses
”I was just teasing you I don't knohat's wrong either” Isha said while winking at him
”Thanks… that sure onians” Miranda said
””Honians and they are very sick” Miranda said
”Bingo!” Jon agreed with her
”And?” Isha questioned
”Argonians have a natural resistance to all sorts of Diseases, they even carry diseases without noticing” Jon said, ”The main reason why no one really wanted to invade that infested land of Black Marsh was that how the Hist and their use of Biological Weapons to fend off the invaders Wasn't the Hist of Year the reason behind the Plague in Narsis?” Jon said
”I see So the Argonians areeveryone sick” Mirren said
”Nope I just said the Argonians are sick which is a very rare thing to happen With that nuonians, there is one assumption we are safe to consider”
”Which is…?”
”This is not a Disease”
The four remained silent for a while
”Not a disease? People orking hard to find a cure for this thing and you're saying they rong all along?” Mirren asked
”Yes The aious disease in ious but only to a low extent More so, there is an obvious state of ” Jon explained
”People are getting mad too?” Isha asked
”I know it is nasty but souesses, I would say it is a Curse” Jon said
”Why?” Mirren asked
”Because no eneral” It was Miranda who replied
”Right I didn't see any infected Mages, who are supposed to be people with low physical constitution”
”So that suo viral?” Mirren asked for confirmation
”Indeed And a very weird one at that”
The four returned to silence once again The situation was now o viral”
”Indeed”
”Then how is this happening?”
”Maybe it was cast with the condition to go viral”
”That's way too advanced Let alone the skills required to do so, Curses need a o viral, I would cast on a Rune Spell to work as a trap and have a better result”
”And what about the et our own test subject then” Miranda said, ”We won't know estion, the others started thinking about it
”Okay” Jon agreed
”You are considering this?” Isha was not approving
”At least it is soonian test subject
”The 3rd of First Seed (March), year 200 of the Fourth Era I, Krilon, will start a ical examination on the subject: JMeen, 37, h the innards and the outer li it is iicka causing the curse were found but the subject'sdue to unknown reasons as the brain is intact as far as I can tell Condition Log, over”
Jon finished his examination on a victim and turned around
”That was brutal” (Isha)
”Stone Cold” (Mirren)
”sexy!” (Miranda)
”What?” (Mirren)
”I like… the systeining herself tied to a bed with Jon holding a scalpel over her and saying mad researcher words
But more importantly, Jon returned the subject back to consciousness
”JMeen, looks like you are fine How are you feeling”
JMeen opened his eyes to see hi looked at by four strong presences Anyone in their right mind would be nervous but JMeen was frenzied
”He is close! Close by! Troll Head! Troll Head is co! He will co us! Now he is eatingin a frenzy and Jon wasn't being able to cal fantasies about that Troll Head thing This ?”
”According to what I know, the ht is not some mental failure They were driven mad but that is not a part of the curse Whoever it is, he is my Uncle's favorite errand boy”
”Oh, please! Don't reed her head
”Troll Head! He is eating! I a eaten I a an adult cry for help in such a desperate situation, even Jon could syonians
The Curse and that Madness areeach other worse
”Hey, JMeen When did Troll Head find you for the first time?” Jon asked
”Troll Head? You know him? You are his friend? Please, I'll tell you all I know…”
After a few atte, Jon came to the conclusion that Troll Head is the person who cast the curse
The purpose is unknown but the suffering is real here
There were alsoto JMeen, the Troll Head came out from an old ruin and wherever he passed, the curse followed
”So it was undead that appeared first in Black Marsh” Mirren concluded
”Or a Necro is there whereabouts of the one behind all this no matter the identity” Isha said
”Mad people can't answer too coation, every step they took was hindered by ure out what to do next
But Jon had the right on what to do next
”If you want to understand a mad man, you need a madman who can understand madmen” Jon said
Jon stuffed his hand into the Cube and recovered so He did so then ran to the forest beside the cave they stayed in followed by his co?” Mirren asked
”He is here Watch but never learn” Jon replied as he looked with excitement around the forest
What he held in his hands was Yarn Rolls with various colors He took the end of each yarn and started throwing thee but it wasn't the first strange scene today
Anyway, the yarn rolls went deep in various directions Jon sat in front of them and patiently waited
It was a ht away and started pulling
”What is that?”
”I a”
As he said so, the yarn thread came to an end and what Jon fished appeared
It was a cat… or rather a Khajiit Alfiq with grey fur and black stripes
”What is that? The yarn is co to life! My oh my… this is a new one!” The Alfiq Khajiit said in a drahed
”Hm? Is it you? You summoned me?” The cat looked at Jon with curious eyes
Jon walked forward and held the cat up from its fire like a little cub
”Hey, what the fluff! Put me down at once” The Alfiq became annoyed all of a sudden
”Hey…”
”I said put me down This is when I should s Cos”
But that wasto Jon
”What's up, Uncle Sheo?”
