==== In the Riverside Teahouse ====
{{SpoilerWarning}}
{{SpoilerWarning}}
'''Auntie Ethel''' is a fussy trader of potions, lotions, quirks, and sundries who can be first encountered in [[The Hollow]] of the [[Emerald Grove]]. Later, she will return to her home at the [[Riverside Teahouse]] in the [[Sunlit Wetlands]].
When the party arrives at this location, Auntie Ethel can be found forcing [[Mayrina]] to eat. If the party takes Ethel up on her offer for help, she will attempt to remove the [[Tadpole]] before stopping and declaring the Tadpole modified by ancient Netherese magic. The price for her help is to give up an eye to her, which she refuses to reverse despite failing to cure you.
 
Allowing Auntie Ethel to take your eye changes the appearance of one eye of your choice and gives you {{Cond|Paid the Price}}. You cannot take this deal if [[Volo]] has already replaced one of your eyes or if you are playing as [[Wyll]].
 
If the party takes her up on her offer, initiates combat, or attempts to infiltrate down into her lair, the [[Overgrown Tunnel]], Auntie Ethel will reveal her true form: that of a Hag.
 
=== Act Three ===
 
==== In the Blushing Mermaid ====
Even if killed in Act One, Auntie Ethel will reappear in her Hag form during the [[Help the Hag Survivors]], [[Avenge the Hag Survivors]], and [[Save Vanra]] questlines. She can be found posing as Captain [[Grisly]] in [[The Blushing Mermaid]] in [[Lower City]]. Her lair is located under this tavern and can be infiltrated through the basement. 


If killed, her body can be spoken to using {{SmallIcon|Speak with Dead Icon.png}} [[Speak with Dead]].
It is revealed that she is functionally unkillable while her life force is invested in her magic mushrooms, which is how she survived being killed during Act One.  If killed previously, she's more hostile with the party, preventing the party from demanding a counter-offer to leave her alone. This does not prevent her from being acquired as an Ally for [[Gather Your Allies]] if Lora is killed and Auntie Ethel is left alone, however.
 
It is recommended that you begin the Save Vanra quest by speaking with [[Lora]] prior to completing the Hag Survivors questlines and defeating the Hag. Failure to get this quest from Lora directly, even if Vanra is saved, will lock you out of its quest rewards.

== Speak with Dead ==
== Speak with Dead ==
If killed, Ethel's body can be spoken to using [[Speak with Dead]]. Ethel is quite unique in that her Speak with Dead dialogue changes depending on whether she still has the [[Tarnished Charm]] on her corpse when talking to her. Unlike most corpses, she will be willing (if angry) to speak to her killer.
