There is an Ability you will have to discover known as "Tenebrium" that will grant you the ability to hold Tenebrium-related items without harm (and without the box). The book and quest that teaches you this new Ability can be found in Luculla Forest- the quest requires you to defeat the Troll King, and the book requires you have level 5 lockpicking or have bested the Immaculate trials.
To cure Rot, the ONLY way is to use a Bloodstone/find a star stone.
