Championship Duel of Wits

Jun 15, 2023

With a second win under his belt, Graham needs to console Whisper in order to move onto the next challenge. Speak with Whisper, and hand him his portrait, collected after viewing the tournament board near the King's statue, to cheer him up. Now that he's autographed the portrait, he'll be willing to help you catch a frog. Take it back to the potion shop in exchange for a sample of the color-changing potion.

Before you exit town, run over to the baker and ask him about free samples. Unfortunately, the squirrels are blocking the path to the arena, so you'll have to appease them with a pastry. In order to give you the sample, the baker needs bitterroot. Run over to the forest just past the king's bell shrine and put your work order on the bolder in the first clearing. Attempt to leave the area and Maya will show up with the Crumbler. Once she's done, you'll be able to grab the bitterroot. Give it to the baker and he'll give you a walnut strudel. Head over to the arena.

Princess Madeline will lead the pack of squirrels blocking the path to the arena. Give her the walnut strudel and the squirrels will leave. The final roadblock is Waddle and a guard. Give the guard the two very cushion-y socks Graham received from Acorn and Waddle will lower his bridge.

Probably lose the first game. The guards will clear the board and you'll have a chance to play again. Before you try, use the color-changing potion on the juice so that you won't drink the potion a second time. There are many ways you can win this, so good luck playing against Manny! Here are tips to keep you ahead of the game:

Once Manny loses, he'll angrily try to attack Graham. Using your last coin, you can grab an item from one of the shop owners and defeat him. The next day Gwendolyn goes off to her tournament, which is interrupted when her grandfather's condition takes a turn for the worse.
