Edam, the Sauceror

Edam, the Sauceror is located in The League of Chef-Magi.

---

• As Sauceror:
  • On initial visit:

    "Ah, you must be the League's newest member! Welcome! I am Edam, head Sauceror within the League. I haven't got any tasks for you just now, but check back with me later on."

  • On subsequent visits:

    "Sorry, <Player Name>, but there's not much going on at the moment. Try back later."

• As Pastamancer:
  • On initial visit:

    The Sauceror peers at you over his spectacles as you approach. "You must be the new Pastamancer. Well, Gorgonzola knows what he's doing, I suppose. I am Edam, head Sauceror in the League. Don't pester me now, I'm working on some very important research."

    He waves you away brusquely.

  • On subsequent visits after The Wizard of Ego is complete:

    "I haven't got time for questions from neophytes," scowls Edam.

The Wizard of Ego

• On initial visit:

  Edam looks up as you approach. "Hmm, the new Pastamancer again. Come here, I may have use for you.

  Our kingdom was once home to a mighty wizard named Fernswarthy, a practicioner of unlicensed wild magic, specializing in the creation of magical beasts and constructs. He was killed several years ago and his tower destroyed, probably by one of his own creations. We want to search the ruins of his tower for any of his spellbooks and research notes that may remain, but alas, the tower is sealed tight.

  We believe that the key is buried with Fernswarthy in the Misspelled Cemetary, in the Nearby Plains. You already know where the Cemetary is, right? Find his remains, and bring me the key to the tower. Off you go, quickly now."

• On initial visit, if the Misspelled Cemetary isn't already on your map:

  Edam looks up as you approach. "Hmm, the new Pastamancer again. Come here, I may have use for you.

  We believe that the key is buried with Fernswarthy in the Misspelled Cemetary, in the Nearby Plains. I'll mark the location of the Cemetary on your map. Find his remains, and bring me the key to the tower. Off you go, quickly now."

• On subsequent visits:

  Edam looks up from a book he's reading. "Yes? Have you brought the key to Fernswarthy's tower? No?" He sighs. "I really cannot brook any delay on this. Fetch me that key, and don't dawdle."

• With Fernswarthy's key:

  "So, have you returned with Fernswarthy's key?" Edam nods approvingly as you hand the key to him. "Well done. Perhaps there's some hope for you after all. Here's some meat for your trouble. Now, run along while I assemble a research team to investigate the tower."

You gain 500 Meat.

• Under Way of the Surprising Fist:

  You take the Meat into town and drop it in the donation slot at the orphanage. You know, the one next to the library.

• The visit after returning the key:

  "Ah, good, it's you again. It turned out that all our other guild members are too busy with their own research to investigate the ruins of Fernswarthy's tower, so against my better judgement I'm giving the responsibility to you." He returns the key you found earlier, and makes a note on your map. "Here's the location of Fernswarthy's tower, or what's left of it. We're quite certain that Fernswarthy's research notes must be somewhere in the remains of the tower. Find them, and bring them back to me."

You acquire an item: Fernswarthy's key

• On subsequent visits:

  "I am a very busy man. Do not bother me until you have completed the task you've been assigned."

• With dusty old book:

  Edam looks up from his reading as you approach him with the old book. "I see you've acquired a copy of the Manual of Transmission. Is that all you managed to find in the tower? Hmm. Well, I must say I'm not surprised. Run along now, I'll let you know if I need you for anything else."

You acquire an item: Manual of Transmission

• With Secret tropical island volcano lair map:

  "Ah, <Player Name>, you've returned. And relatively unscathed, I am pleased to note. Are your Nemesis' assassins proving to be an ordeal?"

  "No," you reply, "I think I've seen the last of them, thankfully. Have a look at this -- I got it off of their leader." You hand over the secret tropical island volcano lair map.

  "It appears my earlier musings were justified -- it was a secret tropical volcano island after all. Interesting. ...It appears that you will need a ship to reach it, and a strong one at that, judging by the indicators on this map."

  "Right. I was hoping you could lend me one?"

  "Unfortunately, such a ship is not among our available resources, and none of our transportation specialists will have the requisite knowledge of your destination needed for a spell of teleportation. You will need to locate a ship through other channels."

  "That figures."
