I wanted to make sure I shared this terrifying tidbit I gleaned from my adventure of doing that interview with Finley...
Apparently he has been prepping and working on solutions for this species, developing a containment suit and some forms of decontamination--because the kingdoms are going to send adventurers INTO the Dragon's Chasm.
...on PURPOSE.
For those too young to remember, every fourteen years is the The Race of Seven Sons--a tribute to the original sons of Arödrin. This race, which is some serious competition, grants the winning kingdom a 'favor' from the losers, which has been prized for centuries. Problem here, is that the races are always tough as hell, and nasty.
Finley tells me that the race this coming winter will be IN the Dragon's Chasm...and is one of the reasons he's been striving for a solution with this damnable fungus.
MY question is--who in the 'right' mind would ever WANT to go into the chasm?
For those interested in more information about the Fungal Horror, I have a complete article which you can read here.
