Based on my limited knowledge I think its something like this:
The gods are in agreement that Al's a jackass, but they disagree on the number and size of the boils that should therefore be inflicted unto him. In fact he was initially polymorphed into a shit shovel in the stables of King Brandor. However this was agreed by most to be an excessively harsh punishment. He has since released on his own recognizance, however as a passing shot one of the gods gave him a nasty case of hack, lepricosy, and the crabs. In the end, the smiting he received seemed to be a result of compromise between immortal beings with varying degrees of humor, compassion, and mercy. Al himself seems rather pleased to be up and adventuring again, if however completely unreformed.
Talk to the clown.
