Delirium Sycamore Ache
Five years ago, a healer in a village that was close to a forest on one of the Merisack chain islands had several people come to them for help over two weeks. There was a rash that spread and became hives. Joint pain, then a very high fever, and one having trouble breathing. It took a while, but the healer was able to figure out that all the symptoms were from the same illness, just in different states. Sadly, all the healer could do was treat the symptoms with his herbs and magic.
A few months later, that healer was visiting a friend in a different village when the friend told them about the odd illness that had been going through the village. It was strangely similar to the one that the healer had dealt with.
It wasn’t until another healer came to them about a year later, wanting to know if they had dealt with this illness, did they thought that they should look into it. They then spent the next two years traveling all around the Merisack chain islands, learning as much as they could about this illness. They soon figured out that the illness showed up only in the late spring through summer. This happens to be the time of year that the Tree mosquito is most active. They also found out the long-term side effects of this illness. The two healers finally came up with a name for it: Delirium Sycamore ache.

Symptoms
The first symptom is a rash that spreads. Over the next day, the symptoms worsen, and the rash develops into hives. There is joint pain, typically in the jaw or hands, but it can also be found in any other joint. Next is a high fever that lasts about a day, and in rare cases, trouble breathing. After three days of this, these symptoms fade away. At this time, there is only one known death, but they are completely unsure, as there might have been other complications.
However, when there is rain, the joint pain returns, and in a few cases, the person has become highly allergic to any tree product, whether that is food or dye, furniture, etc.
