Hallowing

Hollowing is an infliction obtained when one is exposed to a Dark Lords curse or come into contact with their cursed artifacts.

Symptoms


When one is inflicted with Hallowing, they slowly transform into a Hollowed. Their flesh begins to decompose while the inflicted is still alive, making them look more like a walking corpse. Their bones grow weak and soon their skin becomes rotten and start to peel.

Inflicted may also find themselves somewhat resilient to some pain, such as elements like fire. However they become extremely frail to light, and may avoid coming into contact with any type of light until the transformation is complete.

Treatment
Treatments exist for Hollowing. Holy water amd ritual is a common way to slow the process, but it does not ultimately stop the process. To ultimately cure and receive immunity from hollowing, one would have to ingest the sap of the Everwhite tree. Some sell this sap, but due to the rarity and difficulty to reach such a rare tree, Everwhite Sap costs a fortune.
