Overview[edit | edit source]
The Riverside Teahouse is located in the Sunlit Wetlands.
The appearance of the Riverside Teahouse, much like the Sunlit Wetlands, is an illusion. This location's true name is the Gnarled Teahouse, the lair of the hag Auntie Ethel.
Breaking the illusion[edit | edit source]
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 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[edit | edit source]
The backing of the fireplace in the Riverside Teahouse is an illusion. Approaching the fireplace causes the party to roll a 
Perception check 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[edit | edit source]
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. Despite the truth of what is in the water, drinking from it gives the 
condition, which increases the character's max Hit Points by 10 until their next Long Rest. Temporary hit points will be removed at the same time. After a Long Rest, this is replaced with the 
condition, which inflicts vulnerability to Psychic and Acid damage until another Long Rest. Drinking from the well again with the nauseated condition gives the 
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.
