Blamag Magic School, Enchanted Valley | 30th of Bloodthistle, Year 24 A.P.R.
A mutagenic plague derived from the Doomroot’s pollen (see Apocalyptic Alert: Bloodthistle 13) has infiltrated Blamag’s biosphere, transforming the Courtyard of Whispers into a quarantine zone. The disease, dubbed “Soulblight”, crystallizes victims’ memories into brittle shards and emits hallucinogenic spores.
Key Figures & Responses
-
Dr. Zynestra Fellthorn (Chaos Horticulturist):
- Deployed Lumivora plants to absorb contaminated shadows, but the hybrids began singing distorted lullabies that induce time-loop déjà vu.
- Warning: “Do NOT water them with tears—mutated Lumivora now weep acidic sap that erases names from textbooks.”
-
Dr. Nyxira Shadebinder (Abyssal Zoology):
- Mobilized Voidspawn patrols to intercept airborne spores. Side effect: The beasts now regurgitate fragmented memories as physical coins (currency: “trauma tokens”).
- Advisory: “Spend these tokens only at the griefshard market. They explode in sunlight.”
-
Professor Maggie Stormweaver (Co-Founder):
- Activated the Atonement Prism to stabilize reality fractures caused by mass memory loss.
- Quote: “This is why we banned time-turners after the Great Croissant Paradox of 19 A.P.R.”
