What people say
Questor Offer
Excuse me, are you a doctor or have you any healing abilities? I really need someone that can heal my cousin.
My cousin is dying! Can you help me?
Refuse Quest
Damn. I could have used some help.
Just my luck. Thanks anyway.
I'm sorry to bother you then.
Accept Quest
Thank you, thank you! My name is [giver]. I recently received word that my cousin [cousin] of [cousin's place] is deathly ill and will probably die in [questtime] days! Whatever you can do to cure [him/her] will be greatly appreciated. Here is [gold1] gold. I will pay you [gold2] gold more if you can heal [him/her].
Quest Complete
Oh, you've brought me the healing Talisman! Thank you, [your name]. Here is the rest of the gold that my cousin promised you. I really can't thank you enough. I hope the rest of your travels are safe for you.
Rumors During Quest
It's too bad about [giver]'s cousin. I hear it's a fatal ailment.
Rumors Postfailure
[cousin] of [cousin's place] died of Wizard Bane. I hear the plague might break out there now.
[giver] is overwrought with grief. [His/her] cousin in [cousin's place] died recently.
Rumors Postsuccess
Did you hear? There's been a miracle cure in [cousin's place]!
[giver] has donated a large sum of gold to the temple. I hear [his/her] cousin was cured miraculously.
Aren't you the [your race] that cured that poor person in [cousin's place]?
Questor Postsuccess
Bless you, [your first name]. I will never forget what you did for [cousin] and I. [He/she] has fully recovered from the Wizard Bane.
Questor Postfailure
[your name]! You foul the very air with your breath. My cousin died because of you. Out! Out! Out!
Quest Log Entry
[the quest date]: [giver] of [giver's place] has paid me to heal [his/her] cousin, [cousin] of [cousin's place]. [He/she] will most likely die in [questtime] days. I will receive another [gold2] gold when I have saved [him/her].
Message 1011
[the quest date]: I have seen [cousin]. [His/her] condition is even worse than [giver] said. [cousin] says that [healer] in [healer's place] might have a cure.
Message 1012
I heard about [his/her] disease. So far none of the local healers has found a cure.
I did hear something of [him/her]. Something about a mysterious, fatal illness. Very sad.
Yes, I know the story. Sounds like Wizard Bane to me.
No one knows what's wrong with [him/her], but they say [he/she] has only days to live.
A most unfortunate case. No one knows what's wrong with [him/her]. You might try a healer named [healer], who is said to have an encyclopedic knowledge of obscure diseases.
Oh, yes, the one with the wasting fever.
Message 1013
Hello there. Yes, I have heard of [cousin] of [cousin's place] and [his/her] problem. Wizard Bane, it is. I should know. Anyway, I do have a special Talisman that will cure it. It can only be used once, though. I'll sell it to you for 20 gold. Here you go. Thank you very much.

Message 1017
[the quest date]: I have bought a Talisman from [healer] of [healer's place] that cures Wizard Bane, the disease that is afflicting [cousin].
Message 1019
You use the Talisman and it magically vanishes.
Message 1030
I feel so weak. I don't know what is wrong with me. My cousin [giver] sent you to help me? Oh, thank you, thank you! I have just heard of a healer named [healer] in [healer's place] who may be able to help me. Please go to [him/her] and bring me the cure before it is too late!
Message 1040
They say [healer] specializes in the most obscure diseases.
[healer]? Lives in [healer's place], I believe.
Message 1041
[healer]'s the best healer around, they say. You'll find [him/her] in [healer's place].
