Importance of the Staff of Law
Drool Rockworm
Red Herring
Drool Rockworm has the Staff
Lord Foul is weakened from
his battle with Kevin
That fact is Cause for Terror
Cavewights, wolves, urviles,
and Demons answer to the
power of the staff
Drool will use the staff to look
for the Illearth Stone and
make the universe a hell
forever(1)
Notes
Lord Foul needs to buy some
time to regain his strength
To divert the council’s
attention, he sends Covenant
on a quest to tell the Council
of Lords
that Drool has the staff
they need the staff to
resist Lord Foul for 7
years.
(1) Refer to “The Illearth War,”
sequel to “Lord Foul’s Bane”

Missing Digits:
An Overview of Leprosy
History tells us that leprosy is one of the
oldest scourges of mankind. For a long time
leprosy was thought to be hereditary disease,
a punishment from God.
However, in 1873, it was discovered that the
bacillus Mycobacterium Leprae was the real
cause of leprosy and not God.

Leprosy Continued
Leprosy attacks the nerve cells. The patients
may be unable to feel when they get injured.
Serious disabilities occur including the loss of
fingers and toes.
Leprosy is mainly spread by tiny droplets from
the nose and not from God.
Leprosy is a curable disease, which means
that all active Mycobacteria can be killed.
