The Sick Child
Fable Wiki – Your guide to everything Fable.
The Sick Child is a bronze quest available in Bowerstone South. A woman sends her daughter to you for help, and explains that her son, Aldy, has been poisoned. The child in question can be observed rolling around on the floor, muttering something about the sky looking beautiful, and his body feeling unearthly.
[edit] Walkthrough
Seek out the witch in Bowerstone Quay. She assures you that the child is in no danger; he's "probably having the time of his life", but suggests that she can prepare an antidote. All she needs are four blue mushrooms, which can be found in various locations around Albion.
Once you've got the mushrooms, return to the witch to find out this search was pointless and she had the antidote all along. She gives you the antidote in exchange for the mushrooms, which you can then give to the mother.
