I've often wondered, is it possible that the plague that struck Loamhedge might have been Dryditch Fever? I know its never explicitly said, but what we know of the symptoms are similar, and wasn't the Loamhedge plague brought in by vermin as well?
As the Flowers of Icetor only grow in the far north, there was no way to get them to the old abbey, hence the exodus of all healthy animals to Mossflower.

:Well we have no evidence to suggest the plague was not Dryditch fever, however considering the plague happened so long before Dryditch Fever at Redwall, I want to say they are different diseases. --[[User:LordTBT|LordTBT]] [[Image:Tbtico.jpg]] [[User talk:LordTBT|Talk!]] 16:49, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

I think without any confirmation we shouldn't make assumptions. [[User:FlinkyTheStoat|FlinkyTheStoat]] 09:29, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

I think that maybe the plague that struck Loamhedge just might of been Dryditch Fever. I do agree with Flinky. Without any comfirmation, we couldn't prove that. Though the unknown editor is correct about the twin symptoms. Maybe [[Brian Jacques]] will elaborate? Maybe not. [[User:Scottishmouse|Scotty]] 00:38, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

I always thought, because of the way the Loamhedge plague was described as being brought by vermin, spreading, and withering and killing "everything it touched" (According to Abbess Germaine) that it was some sort of living parasite or bacterium that could not be killed by simple medieval medicines, much like the rat-instigated Black Plague in the history of the real world.

BJ probably drew inspiration form the Black Plague. --[[User:Bluestripe the Wild |Lord Bluestripe]] [[Image: Orlando.jpg| 60px | ]] [[User talk:Bluestripe the Wild |Eulaliiiiiiaaa!]] 04:20, March 13, 2011 (UTC)

Isn't it odd how this illness is mentioned and appears in one book only? another thing I wonder is what illness is Dryditch fever based on.[[User:Niko Banks|Niko Banks]] 23:23, July 6, 2012 (UTC)
