Well, it came about some ninety years ago and killed off all of the old world. Or at least ninety years ago we learned how to deal with it and there were enough immune people to sustain the cities we had, to fight back against what had become of the lands.
[Whiiich she'll get to in time. It's good that these beds are so comfy, because she can see herself laying here for a while yet.]
It basically starts out as a really bad rash, and those that have it are dead already. I'm not a doctor person so I can't tell you a lot of those kind of details, but like with any illness we make really good carriers -- and anything that eats us ends up the same way. So to prevent that, we burn the bodies or bury them under rocks. Usually the latter if there's no usable wood nearby.
Thankfully, outside of licking something, there's not many ways someone who's not immune can get it, and they're usually kept safe behind the walls. People like me who are immune get to explore the Silent Lands and take back what the oldworlders left behind.
