OOC: What is Minor Restore? Do you have a link?
The Remove Disease does not restore ability damage, but it will stop further damage from occurring.
IC: Danth awakes the next morning an hour before dawn, and begins his prayers. He washes in some cold water, and then lays hands upon the fitful Shoanti who has clearly spent the majority of the night tossing and turning for his sheets are a twisted and discarded mess. Danth calls down the power of his goddess and sends the disease that has seized Jokad from his body. Danth can feel the cleansing power, and knows the magic has worked its course.
When Jokad awakens he still feels weak and unsteady, but is no longer consumed by the waves of heat and cold that had taken him the day before. The wound on his shoulder has died down somewhat, and while he doesn't feel perfect, he does feel better than the night before. He washes, dresses, and joins Danth in the walk to the temple.
They are met there by Kael, looking refreshed, and Jovik, looking like he wishes he was back in bed again.
The ceremony is short and simple. A small grave had already been prepared, and Zanthus has wrapped the small corpse in perfect white cloth, with a simple wooden toy tucked into the bundle (a carved horse), and a small holy plaque bearing the signs of Desna, Sarenrae, and Pharasma (Goddess of birth and death). He speaks some words, recites a prayer of returning, and anoints the cloth symbolically with a sprinkle of earth. The child is then lowered into the ground and covered.
OOC: Please feel free to add any of your own embellishments
When the ceremony is done, the group move off together to the only open eatery in town, the tiny shack called The Hungry Fisherman that leans precariously at the edge of the dock. It offers simple fare, from fresh bread to clams (yes, clams for breakfast!), to strong local cheese, and even amazingly aromatic black-treacle bacon. You sit down together to reflect on the past few days, and more importantly to discuss how to proceed.
OOC: I want you all to decide what comes next. You can go to Magnimar, take a few days out here, decide to stay here, go back to Thistlepoint to tackle the one place you left untouched, go back to Fort Rannick, etc.... I will make sure things happen whatever option you choose, so please let me know your preference. I am flexible (and adventures are written to be tweaked).
