People flee to the countrysides in the hopes of a new beginning, leaving those too weak or too hopeful behind. Doctors are now beaked, cloaked creatures that wanter the streets of night, their pockets and beaks stuffed with the scent and petals of dried herbs and… posies. What the humans don't know is that the illness is a curse between two forms of witches- The Nyerns and the Lenidas. The Nyerns cause it. The Lenidas fight it. Or try. Be prepared for the biggest cloud to cast is shadow on the 4th of February at noon, upon London, England. 1348.
