Also known as the "Flower Love" disease. This disease has been speculated yet unconfirmed to have stemmed from the Hanahaki disease. Unlike it it's unrequited love-born counterpart, this disease appears to originate from falling in love and the Eijavei Luthoral flowers it produces from the hosts body.

The first symptoms include unexplainable sickness, blurred sight, sluggish thoughts, constant nosebleeds, abnormal severely itchy blemishes, severe panic attacks.
These symptoms later develop into more severe, dehabilitating illness, unnatural and sudden bone deformation, loss of speech and natural motor functions, large patches of sprouting Eijavei flowers emerging from the skin and later other orifices such as the eyes, ears, and mouth.

This leads to the prevention of unconscious motor-functions like breathing, along with flowers growing on and in important internal organs, namely the lungs, heart, and brain. The lungs become clogged and the heart and brain both eventually fail from the same issue. However, the host lives for at least a few more days before ultimately succumbing to their organ-failure and other internal and external injuries inflicted throughout the process.

Despite the death of the host, the flowers continue to flourish, apparently having converted the body into a suitable place to grow. Later stages show the body is turned into a calcified wood-like-state, allowing the flowers to flourish and thrive far easier and more bountifully.

Anyone to come into contact with these flowers from the host or naturally in the wild and having strong affections towards another is immediately infected, yet, there is no physical indications or knowledge of when they are infected until the first symptoms become present and are too late to save.

Because of the volatile and fatale nature of these flowers and the disease, everyone has been warned and prohibited from approaching or touching the flowers or victims of the disease.

Anyone to break these laws are to be shot on sight, no hesitation, and no questions asked.
