Title: Court of Shadows - Cucui mysterious illness
Post by: belaran on <12-03-17/1811:03>

Hi all,

For those who have read the Court of Shadows, and maybe some knowledge of the lore behind it, can anyone give me a hint at what is the reason mysterious curse / sickness turning troll into Cucui ?

I'm just checking that this is not a clear hint at something I would have missed...

Thanks !

I don't remember "cucui" mentioned before Court of Shadows. They could be a one of the new mythological additions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coco_%28folklore%29 If so there is no established lore behind them.

Oh nice catch! I was wondering from which kind of lore this idea came for :) - that seems to be indeed the inspiration.
