Maze Craze
Some people believe that when you find yourself in the Albitrunca underground maze for too long, you will develop a condition playfully dubbed as Maze Craze by many s not widely acknowledged in the organization.W.I.L.L.O.W.I.S.P. employees due to the fact that the place is a large maze. The Algenates are known to be advised to take extended breaks from their shift and not to work for too many consecutive days at a time.
People believe that some of the cause for Maze Craze is the fact that you are underground for a long time and not exposed to proper sunlight. Your body begins to get confused and not know when it is day or when it is night. They also believe that being confined in a small, inclosed space for such a long time may cause disruption. The lights in Albitrunca also have lasting effects on people and the way they behave.
It is not only guards but prisoners who are thought to experience Maze Craze. Sometimes, it is rumored that Algenates become so Maze Crazy that they get lost in the underground maze never to be seen again.
The symptoms of this include also that a person returns from working on the Albitrunca project looking or acting slightly different than they did before being assigned. This is also rumored to be true of prisoners kept there, though it has not been confirmed that prisoners are kept there.
The other symptoms include acting strange, quiet, and distant while within the maze, as your brain is longing to exit the place. Some people are known to have manic episodes, begging to get out of the maze, while others retreat to staying within the dark corners of the maze as if they believe it is their new home and they would never want to leave. This is thought to be an effect of Maze Craze because it is not common for a person to want to say in the dark, ominous underground maze.
It is also believed that some Androids and HTPMDs can experience Maze Craze. This cannot fully be confirmed as Android activity is not widely acknowledged in the organization.
Transmission & Vectors
The Maze Craze is not contageous. It cannot be spread by contact. One may only contract this condition by experiencing Albitrunca firsthand.
Treatment
There is no set way to completely cure Maze Craze, but it is advised to stay out of the maze. Go to an open area out in the public, breathe fresh air, stay out of confined spaces for a while. Relax and push everything about Albitrunca out of your mind. Meditate, read a book, eat healthy, go to Chapel.
