Lodestone Cleanse

After the Strength Drain epidemic started to terrorize the miners of Alagh Caurak, the furious search for cure has started and the Lodestone Cleanse-therapy designed by Kathla Braveguard has so far managed to be the most promising solution to the growing problem.

Utility

The Strength Drain condition sips a life force out of their victims, causing them to end in a spiral of continuous hunger, fatigue and tiredness, that so far has only ended in the death of the subject soon after. However, the Olbarak's tireless involvement in the research of this phenomenon has lead to the discovery of positive effects of lodestones during the treating process.

During the treatment period the subject drinks a daily dosage of potion that both relieves the symptoms and increases the effectiveness of the later ritual. Every 3 days or so the subject takes part in a ritual of transmutation magic powered by lodestones. The ritual takes 4 hours, during which the energy flow of the subject is realigned.

This method has been proven to reverse the effects of Strength Drain, though there is testing to be done about possible side-effects as well as how permanent the results are. Nonetheless, this find has greatly improved the lives of the Strength Drain-patience, and will hopefully save countless lives in the future.

I like the detail that this is still in the trial phase. I hope it works. Strength drain doesn't sound nice.
