Rumour has it ...

That there are numerous ways of dispatching those pesky rodents in which you don't even have to raise your longsword in anger. I've heard tales that all double dozen of them can be dispatched inside of thirty seconds. Wouldn't that be too good to be true?

It's been said that there's a connection between the old man's home and the king: 'The King said, "Bother!" and then he said, "Oh, deary me!". The King sobbed, "Oh, deary me!" and went back to bed. "Nobody," he whimpered, "could call me a fussy man; I only want a little bit Of butter for my bread!" Perhaps a serving at the correct location is in order?

Do you know that you can actually get MUD to say "fuck off" to you? Try experimenting ...

Have you ever considered other places to use those parachutes? One particular location is guaranteed to lead to a grizzly end, but in doing so you'll be given a strong hint to a great secret.

Want in to the badger's home but he'll have none of it? Someone snatched your ticket in? Think it through until the penny drops ...

This is a good few years old and I haven't tried it myself and it may since have been fixed, however; Doing exactly what your prudish parents warned you off could be a lifesaver when short on preparations as a low-life and having to deal with a petrifying creature of ancient aspect. Or at least so the story goes.

That MUD's full of surprises. If you were superman just how would you go about demonstrating your strength?

A very risky operation that some say rewards the adventurer far too handsomely. The use of a very special form of geological material is required, one that is justly referred to in hushed tones.

Pony taking you for a ride? Time to kick the habit and fly like the wind ...

Annoying how protective those creatures are of their possessions. One has become far too protective for my liking, but the trick it employs can be used to dispatch it and another possessive creature and yield the goodies. All that's required is a little patience ...

Fire can be scary as hell don't you think? No? Well do all things agree with you?

Legends tell of a terrible murder. Up from there, then towards the vegetation and on to the disused building. Ignore the hedge and head towards the surprisingly flat area. Keep that bearing until you can go no more. One to the east and there's a lurid hint for you. To the north is a similar though not so easily executed puzzle. There's gold in these hills I'm sure of it ...
