Lord Greystone nodded in agreement. "We must tread carefully. If we reveal our inability to save the infected too soon, we risk losing the trust and cooperation of the people."

Jonas spoke up, his tone thoughtful. "What if we focus on finding a "cure"? We can present the quarantine zones as research and treatment centers, emphasizing our ongoing efforts to discover a way to neutralize the parasite. This way, we maintain hope and cooperation while buying ourselves time."

Erik looked around the room, seeing nods of agreement. "A sound strategy. We will frame the quarantines as part of a larger research initiative aimed at saving lives. This narrative will help maintain public trust and support."

Lady Althea sighed but nodded. "Very well. We will need to prepare our healers and researchers to support this narrative. They must be ready to explain the situation and manage the expectations of the families."
