💥The Shadow Sickness has Spread to the GCSF ... 💥
It started with Haruki, and now, at least one person from each team is experiencing the same symptoms as her!
The guild leaders have fallen ill, team leaders, team members, and even civilians aren't safe.Â
It's probably best to just hold out until this pandemic concludes ...
✦ This event has come to an end!✦
For months, people have wondered what sickness plagued King Desiderius of Apulia. But now, not only has it affected Haruki, but now many Team Leaders and Team members of the GCSF as well! Anybody plagued with the strange Shadow Sickness will feel overcome with irrational and irritable anger, sadness, and other extreme emotions.
On top of this, it seems any Pokemon afflicted with this sickness is in immense amounts of pain, struggling with a fever, chills, and aches. Another telltale sign is the color of your skin, hair, and features turning purple, black, or other cool colors. If you or any other teammates have been afflicted with this sickness, it's best to avoid others and stay indoors! The guild (or rather, those who haven't been infected) are working hard on finding a cure!
So just sit tight and ... try not to succumb to the shadows.
It was a slow process to heal everyone, but somehow, it ended up working! Haruki managed to heal everyone in the GCSF and civilians as well! The healing process mentally would be a long road going forward … but it was a start.Â
Once everyone was on the mend, Haruki received many thanks and graces. Without her, there’s no telling what would’ve happened to their friends. At least now they knew how to stop this sickness if it ever cropped up again.Â
Haruki returned to the guild office once she had finished her healing business. It was time to say goodbye to Ethovalon for now.Â
"So I suppose this is goodbye?" Wynton asked.Â
"It’s only for a little while." Haruki insisted. "I need to check other places of the Great Sea and make sure this Shadow Sickness hasn’t spread. You did have a lot of people adventuring during this time, so … who’s to say it hasn’t started spreading?"
"Will you be able to handle it all on your own? The Great Sea is so vast ..." There was a hint of concern in Wyndam's voice.
"You forget, I’m a Celebi! There’s plenty of us throughout different times! If need be, I can call on my friends to help me out– all Celebi have these healing abilities."
Mary chimed in this time. "An' what if ya get sick?"
Haruki quieted up for a second, sighing in defeat. "That … is definitely a concern I’ve had. But, after all this time being around the people infected in Ethovalon, not once have I felt any symptoms again. For now, I think I’ll be fine. Worse comes to worse, you know where to bring me."
"Be safe out there. You’re always welcome in Ethovalon should you find yourself in the area!" Wyndam offered her a sincere smile, to which Mary obviously had to poke fun at.Â
"Well color me surprised! Ya seem like a completely different person, Wyndam!"Â
The Eevee glanced away, a bit ashamed of himself. "Yeah, well, you can blame the sickness for that. I wasn’t in my right mind."
Haruki nodded, "No one was. Hopefully with a little bit of understanding and TLC, everyone can get back to their normal lives around here. Luckily, no one was harmed badly because of the aggression– thank the stars. It may not be immediately, but they should be feeling as good as new soon!"
She jolted a bit once she realized just how late it was getting. "Oh, look at the time! It’s getting late and I have places to be! I’d better start with Apulia and give my regards to King Desiderius. I wish you all the best and I’ll see you sometime in the future~ Heehee, time puns!!"Â
With a wave and a sudden flash, Haruki had teleported away from Ethovalon, off to see that the rest of the Great Sea was doing just as well. Now feeling better, Mary headed off for Allurian to start up her ferry service once again, leaving Wynton and Wyndam to see to the rest of the GCSF. Things were slowly starting to get better, and if Haruki had made anything clear it was that things would be back to normal in no time!
