Redwall Wiki | Brian Jacques and Redwall Information

Dryditch Fever was a deadly illness that would make one physically weak and confined to a bed until the arrival of death. Victims experienced hot flashes, chills, and dizziness. The only known cure is the Flowers of Icetor boiled in spring water.

The disease arose in Mossflower Country during the time of Abbess Vale. The first known creature afflicted with Dryditch Fever was Thura, a former Corpsemaker who was residing at Redwall Abbey with his fellow deserter, Dingeye. Thura died shortly after leaving Redwall, and the disease spread to the Abbey denizens. Many residents became ill, and several succumbed before the cure was located in the Northlands and brought to the Abbey by Thrugg and Dumble, with the aid of the Wild King MacPhearsome.

The only Abbey residents not to be afflicted with Dryditch Fever were Thrugann, Tudd Spinney, and Faith Spinney, in addition to Furgle Woodvole the Hermit.
