Item overview
Gloss Leaf is a local plant that grows in shaded places beside shallow streams in Fanwood. Its leaves reflect sunlight in rainbow colors and are difficult to find at night. An infusion of the leaves kills the parasite while leaving its human host painfully ill for several days.
Wren, Arsène, Finnetharyn Fimbleshanks, and Vendel Coldblade found gloss leaf and returned to the refugees. An infusion was prepared from the leaves. The treatment made the refugees sicker; within hours, the visible worms stopped moving, and after a couple of days the refugees began expelling them.
