Natural Death: The Silent Noisy Ranty Killer
Much as Epic Flu results from the buildup of certain humours in the blood of a Battalian, Natural Death results from a grave aversion to dire deeds. A common malady in the early times, before the emergence of the Elemenstors, when it was all but wiped out.
Symptoms include heart disease, hip replacement, wrinkles, incontinence and poor storytelling.

Can anyone remember any cases of Natural Death from the books. I tried to remember some but I can't think of a single instance in the whole run. but I thought I remember a snippet in Book 6 about the final ending of the plague of Natural Death. Correct me if I am wrong.

I believe that peasants commonly die from Natural Death--and, being the antithesis of Epicness, peasants of course are rarely mentioned.
