Cure Affliction

Prayer name: St Pastery’s Blessing The lowing of cattle can be heard as the caster recites this prayer. A living subject receives one of the following ministrations:

1. Cure disease: The subject is purged of a single disease of mundane or magical origin.

2. Cure blindness or deafness: The subject’s sight or hearing are restored, nullifying any disease, curse, or enchantment that veiled them.

The miracle of St Pastery, Butter-Monger: In his later years, Pastery left his position as vicar in the village of his birth and took up the life of a mendicant. Refused entry to the castle of the ailing Prince Wallobringe during a plague epidemic, St Pastery blessed the hands of all butchers and cow-herds within a ten mile radius. The saint thus ensured that all meat brought to the prince in his sickbed carried the blessing of the host of heaven, restoring him to health, despite his refusal to admit Pastery. (Wallobringe is a beloved figure of fable, known as Good-Prince-Wallobringe, and famed for his generosity, compassion, and love of mince pies.) Patronages: Butchers, (well-borers).
