Residents of the Basin, including all major cities, villages, communes,
outlying settlements, and lone hamlets, greetings.

Please be advised that thanks to the research contributions of many
brave and self-sacrificing researchers, including Doctor Creshok
zi'Prouep, Junior Fellow Tamashi, and test subject Synkarin, an
efficacious cure for the resurgent Skinrot Plague has been developed. A
climatological manipulation machine has been altered to provide for
localized dispersion of this cure; it is located upon the summit of
Avechna's Peak, for maximum coverage. Use of the machine is open to all,
whatever their status or political alignment. The machine is codenamed
Project Westwind.

Instructions for the use of Project Westwind follow.

To power the machine, insert twenty motes of cloud essence. Note that
this may be gathered upon the Elemental Plane of Air, or converted by a
citizen of Hallifax at request.

When power has been provided, simply PUSH the button on the MACHINE.
Wait a short moment for the climatological effect to charge, and then
PULL the lever on the MACHINE. This will initiate the dispersal
procedure. All within the local area will be relieved of the Skinrot
Plague.

It remains to be seen whether reinfection is possible, so for the time
being, the most efficient course of action is to cure as many people as
possible, and to avoid potential reinfection until total extermination
can be achieved.

The contributions of all who made this breakthrough possible are
commended in the warmest of possible terms.

This has been a public service advisory on behalf of the Board of
Directors of the Commonwealth of Hallifax.
