Inbetween "Veterans homestead" and the "Wapiti reservation" I found "Witches Cauldron" a small shrine like place, with a strange liquid brewing in it. I drank from it, hoping it may be "The cure" ... I don't know what it did, if anything. I'm midway through chapter 6, so I thought what could it hurt. Anyway, just wanted to mention it. I've not bothered looking it up to see what anyone's said about it. ... back to gaming.
