Miragra is a virulent tropical disease endemic to the dense jungles of Hesperidesia, particularly within the Blackhelm Confederacy. The disease is notorious for its rapid progression and severe symptoms, often leading to high mortality rates in affected regions. Outbreaks typically occur during the rainy season when the Zyphus Mosquito, the primary vector for Miragra, breeds prolifically in the region's warm, humid climate.
Transmission
Miragra is primarily transmitted through the bite of the Zyphus Mosquito, a species indigenous to the Hesperidesian jungle. These mosquitoes thrive in stagnant water, which becomes more prevalent during the rainy season. While rare, transmission can also occur through blood contact, though mosquito bites remain the primary method.
Symptoms
The symptoms of Miragra develop rapidly, progressing through several stages:
- Stage 1 (0-24 hours): Mild dizziness, lethargy, and a low-grade fever.
- Stage 2 (24-48 hours): Severe joint and muscle pain, high fever (often exceeding 40°C/104°F), and intense nausea.
- Stage 3 (48-72 hours): The appearance of a distinctive red blotchy rash across the body, accompanied by internal hemorrhaging in severe cases.
- Stage 4 (72+ hours): Organ failure, seizures, and, if untreated, death.
Treatment
The only known effective treatment for Miragra is Quercus Extract, derived from the bark of the rare Quercus tree, which is native to the Hesperidesian jungle. The extract must be administered early in the disease's progression to halt its advance.
Epidemiology
Miragra is endemic to the Hesperidesian jungles, where it poses a constant threat to the local population. Outbreaks typically coincide with the rainy season, as the increased water supply leads to a surge in the Zyphus Mosquito population. Efforts to control the disease focus on mosquito control, public education, and the distribution of Quercus Extract, though these measures are often hindered by the region's challenging terrain and limited resources.
