'Eschaton': the day after the end of time -- a final turning of divine machinery.

Medium

'Eschaton': you have no idea what the word means, but it lands with a pleasant heaviness.

Easy

Your ears thrum at the mention of generic brands.

Easy

A drug order -- no question. Dr. Hugo was right, this is the man you need to fix Ramses.

Easy

There. A direct line to his suppliers. If the good doctor won't sell, you'll have to go over his head.

Medium

At least two different colours and three different consistencies in there. That's not a drug, that's a cocktail.

Challenging

That is... oddly satisfying.

Challenging

Vicarious living achieved. You know you haven't ingested anything, but you are without a doubt a little high.

A failure of imagination. You just feel left out. If anything, you sober up.

Challenging

This is horrible. This just makes you want drugs even more.

He'd happily sell drugs to you. He's just caught wind of an opportunity to get something out of you.

The seething -- it overrides any and all underlying emotions.

Challenging

You can almost see the spine rip itself out the back of him and slither off.

A twitch under his eye. He masks it with anger but there is real upset there.

Squeeze him! Get the man-drama.

Smuggling the ethereal objects of the subconscious into the physical world.

Medium

A middle finger to natural law.

Medium

No hint of a smile with that one.

Medium

No one is safe from the threat of cold storage.

Challenging

The freezer is broken, the meat is going bad. Dr. Gonza labours on in hot storage.

Easy

There's clearly history between the two doctors. Best guess is they used to work together -- that's your in.

Fists clenched, he adopts a strained position against the desk. Everything under his skin tightens.

Medium

Drug... pulsing... madness.

The implication is that you'll know it when you see it. Extremely ominous.

Challenging

Medium

Your brain is constantly churning out natural neurochemicals, it is basically made of drugs. Who are you to say no?

Two words: Lab Grade.

He offers a limp salute and bows his head.

The obvious question -- can he be weaponised somehow?

Medium

That is definitely, 100% a real condition.

Medium

The sheer density of misinformation delivered here could power a propaganda network for years.

Challenging

You have stepped through a portal to another time, where ailments are understood in terms of humours and bile of various colours, and the treatments prescribed can range from leeches to trepanation. All bets are off.

You did, and it did. Does that mean...?

Formidable

Acid sildenafil.

Medium

Put it this way -- will it help? No. Will it make his condition any worse? Also probably not.
