Slowly but steadily, wrinkles were appearing below his eyes.

'Something must have affected his lifespan. But what could it be? And how did it escape my notice? Maybe it was something that attacked him from inside.' Arlo felt bewildered at Roy's miserable condition.

Roy was in a condition similar to a cursed person.
