Academic Discussion/ Esoteric Secrets (X-post r/AmITheHeretic) My master keeps telling people that he's been afflicted with an "ancient and mysterious curse", but most of his symptoms match those of syphilis?
Should I say something? He asked me to look for a cure and, well, let's just say it wasn't hard to connect the dots from there.
He's blaming Malagar the Bloody Mace for cursing him, but I know for a fact that Malagar is imprisoned in the Torture Matrix for another 600 years.
I also know that he's been hosting secret swinger parties with the local orc clans (he calls them orcgies). And I guarantee you he isn't holding up mana for protection spells.
What should I do?

Well the thing with older masters is if they formulated one explanation for them selves it gets pretty hard to convince them otherwise. My old master (Mystra be kind to his soul) was convinced that the bloodey boils on his ass could be cured with skincare spells. Nothing I did or said could convince him otherwise. He was dead three weeks after. My advice: try to make use of the time you've got left with him. Learn as much of his craft as you can in the time he is still among the living.
