weird rot echo
Description
Thoric rotted me for approx. 26 hours. About 6 hours before it expired, I got an echo "Your sores vanish". Rot was still in my affects list (with the same timer) and I still took decomposition damage from it. When it finally did expire, the echo I got was something different than "Your sores vanish". At no point in the whole process was I ever affected by plague or scourge.

Nothing in Rot looks to be responsible. The wearoff message "Your sores vanish." is Plague, not Crimson Scourge, if that helps. The Plague must have come from another source.

It does seem to be possible to pick up plague without it showing in affects. I'm not sure exactly how, but sometimes I get a recurring plague, from having had nothing in my effects.
I'd always put it down to some sneaking char passing by with plague.

Thing is, I was never affected by plague. Maybe Thoric tried to plague me and failed, and somehow I got a hidden entry in my effects? Also, he might also have one of the plague-related edges. That's all I can think of. If none of that looks likely, chalk it up to once-in-a-blue-moon weirdness.

I have also received a "Your sores vanish" echo out of nowhere before. I was not affected by anything that would have caused it, and I was not getting the mana/mv drain effects of a plague. It literally just came out of nowhere. I thought maybe it was tied to an illness that I could not see via affects...?
