After fighting the Masks (or after fighting Ethel), the party can find a buried chest at {{Coords|-2354|-145}}. If instead moving east towards a door in the wooden wall (DC20), then it can be avoided to fight these victims. Above the cages near the door is a wooded platform that has a {{SmRarityItem|Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen}} next to a Gnarly Cauldron, some [[Worg Fang|Worg Fangs]], and a trapped [[Heavy Chest]] (DC 20 to disarm) that use's Ethel's Key to unlock. There are plenty of Peculiar Flower traps in this room so watch out. | ||
Continuing past the wooden wall, the party encounters Ethel, if her identity was revealed. She becomes hostile and tells the party to die. If Ethel did not reveal herself, then this area is empty, allowing the party time to investigate. In this instance, Ethel does not appear unless the party attacks and destroys one of her [[Pearlspore Bell|Pearlspore Bells]]. | Continuing past the wooden wall, the party encounters Ethel, if her identity was revealed.

{{SmRarityItem|Hag's Bane}} can be crafted using [[Alchemy]]. It requires one Essence of any kind and the {{SmRarityItem|Ashes of Dried Fey Flower}} found in the safe during Help the Hag Survivors. When fighting against Ethel, throwing the Hag's Bane at her gives her the condition Nauseous and she throws up Vanra. Using the potion must be done before Ethel is defeated, otherwise Vanra dies. | |||
Ethel can be killed in the same turn after she vomits Vanra even if all the Pearlspore Bells aren't destroyed. If this happens, the quest remains uncompleted. Grisly and the other mask wearers remain hostile and won't be freed even if they were knocked unconscious during the fight.{{verify}} | Ethel can be killed in the same turn after she vomits Vanra even if all the Pearlspore Bells aren't destroyed.

Within the Hag's basement, there are three Pearlspore Bells. These bells are the source of Ethel's life force, and keep her from permanently dying. Unless all three Bells are destroyed, Ethel continues to resurrect herself. The Bells also heal themselves during their turn, if they are not destroyed before that. Contrary to the quest description, they can be destroyed by damage types other than fire. As suggested in | Within the Hag's basement, there are three Pearlspore Bells.
