The party must enter {{CharLink|Auntie Ethel|Auntie Ethel's}} teahouse in the [[Sunlit Wetlands]] (X:-47, Y:266) and use Ethel's illusory fireplace to enter into the [[Overgrown Tunnel]]. The first hurdle is a door of vines. Attempting to use it causes it to telepathically share its story with the party to warn them from proceeding further. An Arcana check reveals that the door is an illusion and can simply be walked through. Otherwise, persuading the door (DC 10) causes it to share its secrets. | The party must enter {{CharLink|Auntie Ethel|Auntie Ethel's}} teahouse in the [[Sunlit Wetlands]] (X:-47, Y:266) and use Ethel's illusory fireplace to enter into the [[Overgrown Tunnel]].

However. while Auntie Ethel is alive, the wearer of this mask must make a {{SavingThrow|WIS}} every turn. If failed, they become a Hag's Pawn (controlled by Auntie Ethel) and will attack the party; if all party members equip the mask, the Game Over screen appears. If all of the unaffected party members run away from combat (e.g. back to the Tea House), leaving no one to attack, the remaining mask-affected party member will be able to unequip the mask after making a wisdom saving throw. | ||
Past the Hag Servants is a waterfall and a winding path filled with noxious fumes and explosive traps. On this path, there is a door to the north (X:-354, Y:577) that can only be passed while wearing a Whispering Mask. Pass through the door and move to the Mushroom Circle to enter the Underdark. | Past the Hag Servants is a waterfall and a winding path filled with noxious fumes and explosive traps.
