Where did I get that bit of information about her killing herself, btw. I thought it was form the books, but now I can't find it.
In the chronicle it said she had sworn to die rather than be captured by her enemies. In the herbal book the passage describing hemlock is underlined. The Rider-in Iron alluded to what had killed her- but didn't say what it was. You made the connections.
And yes, Benn can easily find the recipe for making a hemlock solution; it's in the herbal book. I wasn't going to say anything until a PC actually suggested looking in the big book of herbs for information, but Benn just did, so there you are.
Delight is to him- a far, far upward, and inward delight- who against the proud gods and commodores of this earth, ever stands forth his own inexorable self.

It should work unless Wolutha has certain magical protections in place, is out of range, or is on the far side of a body of running water.

Oh, certainly. I just didn't remember the specific passage it was referring to.
In reference to the question posed in the IC thread, do any of the people in the book resemble the rider-in-iron? Probably not, since I think he was a knight that rode to the castle to fight her, but worth an ask all the same.
"Of course," Benn mutters, "It would be a damned shame if we ever knew what the hell was actually going on."

No, none of the pictures resemble the Rider-in-Iron.

You know, I half expected to see an ancient portrait of some unassuming character we'd never suspect, like one of the tinkers or . . . Wat! Ha, wouldn't it be awesome if Wat was just pulling the strings this whole time, like a backwoods Dominic D'honaire?

Hehehe, that would have been creepy, wouldn't it?

Hey Tarlyn, did Norzak ever show Dorgio the music box from the keep?

Unless anyone posts to the contrary , I will assume that the party is indeed heading to the Keep. I will post a scene after dinner.

Also, you bring up a good point about blind wizards, Sky. Maybe somewhere there are spellbooks written in eldritch braille.
