( how does she even start with this? she's never actually broadcasted to the locket network before, nevermind during something as awful as a sickness spreading. but- it's her job, right? it's her job to look after the health of the Unseelie court.

the feed starts and it's clear that Clarke is in the Caer Scima library; the curse has already begun to sprawl up her neck in fine lines of silver, stopping short of her jaw. despite the fact that she's obviously been affected by the illness, those who are familiar with Clarke will be able to tell she's still in good spirits, despite the seriousness of the subject.

Hi. My name is Clarke Griffin. As some of you have already noticed, a lot of people have started to turn silver, like this. ( she reaches up, pulling down the collar of her shirt to show the lines of silver that disappear beneath her clothes. ) From what I've gathered so far, it's affecting those who have influence in either court, or who hold a reputation in the courts or the lands surrounding them, and we can infect anyone by skin-to-skin touch or by the exchange of bodily fluids, in whatever manner that might be.

Here they call me a Midach, in some worlds I'd be lead healer, and in others the Minister of Health. ( normally she- wouldn't actually bother telling anyone about that, but it leads into why she has any sort of weight in this. ) The idea was put forward for me to issue a quarantine of the infected, but with it being spread out from Dorchadas, I hardly see that being an effective wait of containing it. Plus- The more people we have out looking for a cure, the better.

Right now, my suggestions are these: if you wish to touch your loved ones, wear gloves, clothing, do not allow the direct touch of skin if you are infected. If you're one of our vampire residents, please be cautious of who you're drinking from. And if you're already infected, you should refrain from sex until a cure is found, lest you infect the other person, or people. If you attended the festivities yesterday and weren't already infected, you may want to double check yourself for the illness.

I'm setting up research hubs in both the Caer Scima library and the Station so that we have centralized places to pour information into while still making it accessible via fairy ring. I have offices in both those locations as well, so if you're looking for me, I can be found there or over the lockets. If you have any information about cures, spread it as far as you can. Lockets, word of mouth, shout it from the top of the castle if you want to, just make sure the information is getting out there.

I'll be leaving a recurring message running on my locket of cure suggestions as they come in, so you can give it a listen if you haven't found anything yet.

And if I can help you in any way, you can find me in either of the places above, via the locket, or I'll be responding to this broadcast as I can.

Thanks for you time, and good luck out there.

( ooc. just a note that threads will be short since Clarke will be primarily focusing on researching. there's an open research log here for use as a "mingle" log, and the "voicemail" with cure listings can be found here. )

Anything 'out of reach' you would like me to spirit away for you?
gehennawind: (bet you didn't know)

[Paloma thinks she can be an undead comedian.]

True love's kiss and other kindnesses are common cures, if you go by hearsay. It seems as though intention doesn't matter more than the actions themselves, but...

[A delicate shrug.] We'll find out more. The sickness doesn't stand a ghost of a chance.

Same here. It's haunting.

[stop this]

But, Clarke, the biggest word I keep hearing pop up in the search is atonement. Tricksy. Means something different for everyone.

[Let's hope the curse is the single-minded kind.]

Who knows? Reul has my body. I could ask him?
gehennawind: (you electrify my life.)

[She's not sweating it.

Literally.]


I'm in the enviable position of watching my friends suffer. Ain't fortune a stinker?

But that doesn't mean I can't help. Everything I turn up, I send to you. That's a promise.
