Talk:The Duchess' Cottage
Has anyone tried adventuring here with the new foods? Specifically 5 map foods, as she asks for a 5 course meal.
With beautiful soup, Lobster qua Grill, Missing wine, walrus ice cream and Humpty Dumplings:
You shrug your shoulders. "The only thing I don't have is this bottle of wine," you say, and hand the missing wine to the Duchess. "Capital!" she shouts. "Saves one the trouble of drinking it, and the moral of that is, 'too many cooks spoil the broth!'" Now, let's have something to whet my appetite!"
You give the Duchess your bowl of Beautiful Soup. She tastes it, adds about a wheelbarrow full of pepper, then lifts the bowl and drinks it down. "Delectable and pulchritudinous!" she cries. "But the next course should have some substance to it, and the moral of that is, 'only cowgirls get the blues!'"
You give the Duchess your plate of Humpty Dumplings. "Capital!" the Duchess says. "I would have eaten up your candy and your licorice, but these will do!" Then she smacks her lips and rubs her stomach in a spectacularly off-putting fashion. "Ah, nothing like dumplings to put one in the mood for crustaceans. And the moral of that is, 'let sleeping dogs lie.'"
You hand your Lobster qua Grill to the Duchess. She cracks open the shell with her chin and gobbles the meat inside. "Nothing hits the spot quite like sea-bug!" she shouts. "It doesn't even need any pepper! But I added some, anyway, and the moral of that is, 'never trust Whitey!' And now, for dessert!"
You hand your dish of walrus ice cream to the Duchess. She buries her face in it, snorfling it down in a most unladylike fashion. "Needs more pepper, but still a perfect end to a perfect meal!" she shouts.
After she finishes the ice cream, the Duchess leans back and belches, contented. "A most acceptable feast!" she cries. "For your reward, you may have the Gratitude of a Duchess, and you may touch my hair if you like!"
"Thanks a whole heap," you say, and pat the Duchess's head. Then you head for the door, and on your way out you steal the first reasonably expensive-looking thing you can lay your hands on.
You acquire an item: ittah bittah hookah

Second feast
I strongly suspect that the effect given by a second attempt at presenting the Duchess' five-course meal is not specifically Concentration, as the page currently claims, but is in fact a random effect chosen from the same pool as the hookah. Given the uselessness of a random effect compared to the effort of collecting another meal, I'm not going to be the one to spade this... --Jasonharper 03:39, 11 March 2010 (UTC)
Will you recieve a second one with a hooka in your DC?
Will you recieve a second one if you pulverize the first?
Can you even pulverize familiar equipment?--The ErosionSeeker 22:15, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
- I only know the last one for sure: It's impossible to pulverize familiar equipment. --Yatsufusa 08:15, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
- lol, i was joking about those, is there any other way to destroy a IBH?--The ErosionSeeker 19:12, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
Feasing without all the food items
It needs to be noted that adventuring at the duchesses cottage with most of the items, or all of the items and one uncooked humpty dumpling, will lead to the duchess taking one of the food items. One should make sure they have ALL the proper food items and the humpty dumplings cooked BEFORE doing this adventure, or you'll lose on of your meal portions.
~edit~
By screwing up once again, I've learned she takes all food items 'up to' the food item you're missing. So if you haven't cooked your humpy dumplings, she's going to take your Missing Wine and Beautiful Soup.
