FaeRot, Blight of the Necrophage

FaeRot, Blight of the Necrophage, the Scourge of Yharm, is an attempt to disease all the wildlife in the Fey Wilds. This is the testing grounds for a mighty blight that Yharm is said to be conjuring. It is said that she could easily try her hand at wiping all plant life on Terra Firma, but she would much rather cause panic for the immortals in Terra Etheria, where Faerun is rumored to be present. It is unknown how her power is able to stretch that far, but all those years locked away must have provoked some sort of primal urge, I suppose. It is said that the FaeRot is incurable, similar to the Necrophage, which ultimately ends with an agonizing death that is certain and cannot be avoided. If this FaeRot, as it is called, should be spread in Terra Terrarium, then the entire world would suffer the Scourge of Yharm, facing the ultimate destruction of mankind, not from her skeletal army, but from the immense problems that would be caused by the lack of plant life.   It is said that Tetra, Goddess of the Wilderness, has sent out those she trusts to find a cure for the Necrophage, ending the reign of terror that Yharm is causing, again and again. But she is unsure if it's even possible, and if it is... It may be too late...
