Honey disease

Honey disease, also known as THE FISH, is a kind of soul-sickness in which one grows honeylike scabs on one's cheeks, then starts going tough, rough, and fucking crazy. Oslak managed to kill a fish in one fucking jab with this condition, but forgot he had any sympathy for Torak. Poor Oslak, Bera and Bale's brother (2 years before the others) got this issue in Spirit Walker. Bale's brother was used as a human Guinea pig in a test run two "summers" before. It turns out that the disease is spread by poisoning juniper berries, so to cure the disease, avoid your old Selik Root, quit eating the berries.
