Across The Sand

Several days went by in the time-accelerated area of the Lord of Lords. And in that time I understood many things.

First thing first, this isn't a poison as I had suspected. It is a disease. Which is frankly surprising. 

Is it a type of virus? -And I'm going on a limb calling it a virus- That only works on a dead body. I used a small chicken to test it out, the chicken died immediately after being injected with a small dose of the poison but after a small while it stood back up.

However, it kept slamming its head against the ground until it 'died' again.

Which was frankly disturbing.

I then continued on testing on the virus. But couldn't come up with anything of value. I'm not a scientist and I'm not planning on becoming one. But I still needed to understand some of the basics of the virus. After all, I'll be venturing into a den of these things.
