Rules the same as Rhuvein's Yggsburgh, answer a question correctly and will ask the next question.

Spoilers are very likely to occur.

Is the word "nagging" actually used in the text. I read though that section and it only says (or I'm missing it) that Throkk has promised something to Gertrude and she wants it, but I don't see where she nags him about it.

Thanks.

Yes indeed, you're up!

Although if he instead got rid of his wife and kept the narcotic 'shrooms, gem of brightness, and the gray ooze he could turn the Castle into a wicked health spa!
Relaxing drugs, a tanning bed, and a mud bath? Sounds like a good business plan to me!

I never know any of these off the top of my head. In order to answer the question I'll have to go back and look through the documents to either confirm or discover the answer. Is this test open-book?
