BENALIA — A junior physician, a member of the diagnostic staff of the Order of the Samite, suggested Tuesday that a patient’s mysterious illness may in fact be lupus.
The physician was quickly rebuked by her superior, the order’s cantankerous master healer, who said Tuesday that the problem is definitely not lupus.
“It’s never lupus,” the master healer said.
“Check for pox. Also, run a scan for deathspores, engineered plagues and withering hexes,” he said.
“It could be cursed flesh,” another junior doctor suggested.
“Oh, that just figures, our resident enchantment expert assumes it’s cursed flesh,” the master healer said. “I suppose our ooze wrangler thinks it’s a consumptive goo,” he added.
When asked by the order administrator what he thought the problem might be, the master healer said that he was betting on an unstable mutation.
“But we took a family history and they said they had no mutations,” the junior physician protested.
“You think I believe them? They lied, of course,” the master healer said.
