 "A plague has spread across the planet of Jaern. All major population centers have been hit and hit hard. It is known that magical healing will stop the symptoms and fend off dying, but they come back within weeks. As such, there are long lines in some of the larger cities where healers heal. Orusians and other priests desparately attempt to feed these healers units. Dwarves around Jaern are panicking and searching for relief.  The city of Centralia has shut their gates barred entry into the city. Many portals have been shut down to prevent the plague from spreading off-world. All portals to Centralia have been shut down, as well as the portals to other Jaernian locations. A shipping portal is still intact for ships, so quick travel between Centralia Island and Lojem is still possible." "A plague has spread across the planet of Jaern.
