Temporal Fever

Temporal Fever

Temporal Fever is an artificial disease or process created in the Herbie Brennen novel Faerie Lord .

Origins

The disease was first found in a little faerie girl called Jalindra who it was originally thought to have horse-sniffles a common disease among the children in the Cretch. Jalondra was four years old when she caught it but she died eighteen months later from old age. From then the disease spread affecting both Faeries of Light and Faeries of Night. Despite the best efforts a cure could not be found.

Cause

The cause of the disease was discovered in the ending chapters of Faerie Lord when the Empress Holy Blue and her lover Henry Atherton discovered the trapped Angel in the Mountain of Madness.The Angel had been captured by a retired Demonologist Silas Brimstone under the orders of Lord Hairstreak as a means of him re-establishing the collapsed slave trade in the Faerie Realm.The disease was technically not a disease but the consequences of the Angel being in that Realm. As the Angel was from Haven and not the Faerie Realm this caused a strain on the fabric of reality which then caused a slippage in the form of Temporal Fever.

Consequences

After the Angel was set free the effects of the Disease reversed causing those affected to de-age but unfortunately those who died could not be revived.
