I was pretty sure the answer was no, but I checked the dialog files to be sure. No, you can't cure Paul.

Thanks for the initial answer and verification of it by checking the game's files.
I'm sorry to learn that the game doesn't allow the player to heal Paul's Fleshrot disease, but I suppose some tragedies can't be prevented.

Re: Is it Possible to Cure Paul's Disease?
Ive always laughed at deaths in rpg games. sure it makes it more palpable but im always like, hey no worries ive got a cure.......(and i imagine the game going this way) Dying person--no no, save it for yourself when you need it. Me--no, really and if you die i can ressurect......dying person--no rellly (COUGH HACK WHEEZE) i cant be healed......Me--seriously i do it all the time. let me hel......dying person--(running away) NO I NEED TO DIE!!! DONT COME FIND ME AND REZ ME,IM DEAD!!! I HAVE TO BE DEAD! ..
lol
and yes i imagine this in ALL my rpgs where i cant heal someone even though i can RESSURECT ppl lol
i think it stems from a dnd game where a baby was supposed to die for effect but i had a wand of rez and used it on the baby so the ppl in the town would accept me as an orc healer. but thats another story for another day......

The armies joined in a bloody battle on this fine day, then storm clouds broke, and it rained.
So they all went home.---Story knots within blatherbeards Beard.

Thanks for the story, blatherbeard.
I'm glad to know that other players of Eschalon understand how I feel about being unable to heal a non-playable character's illnesses, despite having the item and spell to do so.

The problem is that Paul crossed Abbey Road barefoot. There is no cure for that.
