    The disease comes from being raised on enough media and being encouraged to critically engage with it. It spreads by engaging ones curiosity long enough for the person to find the joys of lore. It mainly affects very autistic people who have both an interest in science and an interest in storytelling, with most storytellers never contracting the illness.
