No, more like... it spreads through your body once you have it. Whenever you die your body disintegrates into dust that'll spread Oripathy, if it's not handled carefully.
[they are timebomb corpses. fun.]
There'll definitely still be wars for us to handle, but at least it'll be one less thing.
Hopefully! We're making decent progress on it, anyway... and even if curing Oripathy's going to throw some shit into turmoil, that'll remove some conflicts at the same time.
It's one worry removed, and one less reason for tensions to rise. Even if your world doesn't know a life without that hanging in the balance, at least your quality of life should be able to improve.
[ even if everything else will still be troublesome and difficult. ]
[is it a kindness to trade a life for it? it's pragmatic, sure, but.]
... but you're not wrong about what it'll do. Can't wait to see what happens in places like Lungmen, they're gonna shit bricks when they realize they need a new excuse to keep the slums separate!

she'll let roxana touch though, sure, holding her arm there.]

[ and less like cancer. she gently touches wis'adel's arm, more of a brush than anything. ]
I hope you and your people have a long-lived existence once we're through with this.

[it is still basically like cancer except you can catch it. awful.]
We'll see. Fixing Oripathy doesn't mean we can't still die in wars.

[ are there zombies in arknights ]
Dying in wars is more expected. It may not be wanted, but... as long as interests conflict, wars will result.

[ how virulent. it's impressive even if it's horrible. ]
You said you were working on there being fewer wars, so it'll be even less, after.

Oh, they're those kind of people, hm? They'll make up any reason for their benefit, if they're those kind of people.

[and it'll be interesting to see how things shake out when that gap is exploited.]
