The Blight Lord - Day 3

⇢  The tribute with the highest number of kills on DAY THREE is visited at night by movement among the trees and a strange melody. 

An antlered figure strides forth, garbed in old raiment and moss-covered, holding in their clawed hands a crown of flowering fungus.

They rest it gingerly in front of the tribute and take a bow.

“All hail the Blight Lord.”

The fey spirit leaves after this coronation, receding back into the woods. When the tribute wakes up the next day, the crown is affixed to their head, whether they have chosen to wear it or not. Moss and fungus grow down their forehead, nearly fusing with skin, and they notice signs of blight spreading across their body. They also find one bundle of medicinal plants by them, presumably brought to them by the same fey spirit from before. 

If another tribute scores the highest total number of kills, the crown of fungus on the previous tribute instantly withers away.
