 * While in the In Between, some ways of damaging oneself such as eating Crabeye or Miasmapod, or casting Immolate, will not cause any damage.

Acquired From
This disease is contracted on the final quest of the Holy Mission faction, when choosing to sacrifice yourself in order to save Ellinara from death during the queen's ascension. Elatt warns you that you will die in one month, and this disease is eventually contracted afterwards.
