I spent my day trying to deal with this terrible itching, I want to keep teaching my apprentices but I really can't focus like this. Every day it gets worse. Pain killers do help, unless if I want to be able to try to solve this then I definitely shouldn't use painkillers strong enough to account for how quickly the itching gets. I tried that for a while and I ended up being all happy and foggy headed, I couldn't think straight and everything was hilarious. Which, while fun, I would rather be sober.

I tried healing myself to see if that would ease the itch, and it worked. Unfortunately it didn't stop it from getting worse, and in fact made it get worse faster. Why? How could healing possibly cause that?

The scholars weren't very helpful, none of them knew anything that might be relevant. Or rather anything that might have been relevant we were able to dismiss. It isn't a disease, those are pretty obvious when you know what to look for. Nor is it a curse, those can be much more insidious, but are still bound to the same rules that make diseases easy to identify. It isn't a poison, or if it is then nothing that the scholars know of would be capable of fixing it, and besides I would notice if I had been poisoned.

Actually, now that I think about it I never actually checked. That should have been the first thing I did. I think I'll do that now.

This is so much worse that I thought it was. My body is falling apart at the seams. The spells that make up me are unraveling. I need to deal with this. I don't know how to deal with this. Am I dying? I don't know! and that is terrifying. I need to go, I need to find someone who can deal with this. Can anyone deal with this? I don't know.

I'm going to go talk to the scholars, hopefully they know something. I hope I'm not dying.
