=== Illusionary Wall ===
The backing of the Fireplace in the Riverside Teahouse is an illusion. Approaching the fireplace will cause the party to roll [[Perception]] checks to notice it. This wall can be passed through, which leads to the lair of the hag, [[Overgrown Tunnel]]. Passing through this wall will cause [[Auntie Ethel]] to become hostile.

=== Well ===
==Related Quests==
Just south of the Teahouse entrance is a well that is also deceptively affected by the illusion of the area. Interacting with it when the illusion is up will have it appear as fresh, sweet-smelling water gurgling gently below. Without the illusion it is revealed the well has a fetid smell as it's full of dead flesh. Despite the truth of what's really in the water, drinking from it will give you the {{cond|Refreshed}} condition, which will increase the character's max [[Hit Points]] by 10 until their next [[Long Rest]].  (Note that temporary hit points will be removed at the same time.)  After a [[Long Rest]] this is replaced with the {{cond|Nauseated}} condition, which inflicts vulnerability to Psychic and Acid damage until another [[Long Rest]]. Drinking from the well again with the {{cond|Nauseated}} condition will give the {{cond|Sickened}} condition.
 
NOTE: If you drink from the well prior to engaging in combat with [[Auntie Ethel]], she will change the effect of {{cond|Refreshed}} to {{cond|Sickened}} during the battle.
