Osteoporosis

Written by Pookas Kreations

A small percentage of Sky Gnomes have begun coming down with a form of Osteoporosis. This seems to be a result of them evolving to have porous bones and a side effect of the reduction in gravity. More and more Sky Gnomes seem to be coming up with this disease, so far the only recourse that they've found is to send them to the Treelands a couple of days out of every month. They are searching for a cure, but this is in its early development.

One scientist suggested going to consult Mother on Atlantia, but others think that its too soon and that they can find a cure.

Causes

Low gravity is believed to be the cause.

Symptoms

These sky gnomes appear frail and stooped, and are more likely to break bones. The loss of bone occurs silently and progressively. Often there are no symptoms until the first fracture occurs.
