Your last fight against the Fell left you scarred. You cannot grasp the situation yet, but whenever you enter the Shroud, the choking fog suffocates you much quicker.

You should ask the Alchemist about a cure to ensure this new ailment doesn't impact your vitality long-term.

Your talk with the Alchemist was enlightening, but disturbing just the same.

You learned you were cursed on your last expedition into the Shroud. The ailment has long-term consequences for your vitality, and you will suffer from this malaise until you find a cure.

The cure can be made from materials that can be found above the Shroud at night, scattered among groups of Fell foes.

Gather the materials, craft the cure, and use it to cleanse yourself.
