Where this comes from

Abstract

In the heart of the emerald expanse of rural Brazil, where I spent my childhood in a humble village, a chilling legend clung to the corners of every home, whispering of a blighted lineage. This unfortunate family bore a strange malady-a gradual forfeiture of their ability to walk-a lamentable curse that extended its icy fingers through 5 harrowed generations.
