Hm, Very good Dexter, all you have said is true, and the rest I am able to pick out of your mind, very interesting facts in there I might add, so I will permit you to take an item with you beyond this place. 1d10 ⇒ 6

With this claws up one of the floor tiles to her right, and scoops out a bag with one of her long claws, and tosses it to Dexter's feet.
Take this with you, as I don't believe you've realized yet extradimensional spaces tend to get out of sync with the time in this room, one of the places assorted limitations, but heres a Handy Sack of Held Time it can only hold up to five pounds, or three different things - whichever limitation you reach first, I'm sure you'll find it useful though. Now go forth, you've rested here long enough, also DON'T repeat what I'm about to say until you have a better idea of what's going on, and are ready for another riddle,

Well, you have all had plenty of time to think about my riddle now, so does any of you think they are capable of solving it?

Only by the Goddesses whim have you passed by the door into my lair, and it is only by my whim that you remain unmolested, but I warn you that I am the more fickle creature.

I foresaw that you would be coming, but how dare you open the goddesses door without first solving her riddle. Nevermind, Nevermind, that door should have had a stronger lock upon it to keep the unworthy out.

Since I see that you have already discovered the delights of the bar,
I ask you

Where does food come from out of thin air,
In a time that's never been
Why can it serve crab, roast duck, and hen
but not honey, wine, or Salted fare

Let's start you off nice and easy, only two people have ever opened my door without correctly answering the riddle upon it before - and I must say I'm just as happy your not knowing the answer to that one - Anyways Here are the rules
1. Don't take my riddles seriously or answer flippantly and I'll eat you
2. Answer my riddle, but take your time doing it, I'm nothing if not patient living in this place
3. Once you have answered my riddle, you must tell me two things I don't already know, and I know a lot, suitable for me to make into a riddle for someone else.
4. If you do all this than I'll let you leave, unharmed, with one of my little baubles
