"Then you must stop. ...Or learn to use the Arts of this world, instead. I, too, am learning. But your internal organs are stiffening. This is more similar to the progression of Oripathy, where the disease tends to spread from the inside out. Ignoring the state of your arm, you would be considered a moderate to advanced case."

"There is one significant note. Oripathy is resistant to treatment because the inhaled dust acts as a nucleation point, calcifying the blood and organs. It is resistant to treatment because it is impossible to fully remove the dust - much like a cancer. I do not sense anything like that now. It suggests it may be possible to resist. Or perhaps, now that you are removed from the magic of your world, it may stall."
