Poverty Plague

While the situation was obviously urgent, both Nathan and I just ended up sitting and looking at each other. Though, it's not like we had anything else to do, because we had to think of a solution.

The ironic thing about the Poverty Plague was that if everyone was living fairly, then the fact that this disease even existed in the first place might be unknown. In fact, if it was taken to the modern world, there would probably be many people that would want to contract the disease so that they could lose weight.

Because really, that's all that it did. In the modern world, it was less of a threat than the common cold. Yet, here, many would end up starving to death.

The rather unfortunate thing about this was that regardless of the choice you made in the game, there would still be at least about one thousand or so deaths. And if you didn't make several different choices beforehand, half of the commoner population would end up dead.
