Pilgrim Path Sunday: Discover the source of the cursed plague

A quieter request on the surface, but old roads often hide the strangest turns.

Too frail to make the journey but knows exactly what must be done. The task: discover the source of the cursed plague. But there's a catch - the party must choose between two conflicting moral obligations.
