=== Breaking the illusion ===
There are three ways to break the illusion and reveal the true appearance of this location:
* Seeing through the illusion while in the Sunlit Wetlands
* Attacking the {{CharLink|Redcap|redcaps}} disguised as sheep outside the Riverside Teahouse
* Causing Auntie Ethel to transform into her true form as a hag. This can be accomplished in several ways, such as attacking her or accepting her offer to remove the parasite.


=== Illusionary wall ===
The backing of the fireplace in the Riverside Teahouse is an illusion. Approaching the fireplace causes the party to roll a {{Ability Check|Perception}} to notice the illusion. This wall can be walked through, which leads to the hag's lair in the [[Overgrown Tunnel]]. Passing this wall causes Auntie Ethel to become hostile.

=== Well ===
South of the Teahouse entrance is a well that is 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, the well has a fetid smell, as it is full of dead flesh.

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 nauseated condition gives the {{cond|Sickened}} condition. If drinking from the well prior to engaging in combat with Auntie Ethel, she changes the effect of refreshed to sickened during the battle.
