Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who is the rightful future king of Lancre?

Answer: Tomjon

Although the fool is the one who gets crowned king eventually.

2. Which one of the following is not one of Tomjon's talents?

Answer: Perfect eyesight

Granny Weatherwax gave him the ability to be whoever he thinks he is, Magrat gave him the ability to make friends easily and Nanny gave him a good memory (so he wouldn't forget the words of songs).

3. What is Hwel's species?

Answer: Dwarf

Hwell is a dwarf, although contrary to dwarf tradition, instead of many years swinging an axe, he swung a pen instead, because he's a playwriter.

Answer: King Verence

After he is murdered his ghost continues to roam the castle, seeking revenge.

5. What does the ghost of the king do to irritate Lord Felmet?

Answer: Adds too much salt to Felmet's meals

Although the trees around the castle drive the Duke crazy, the king's ghost had nothing to do with them. Felmet's bloody hands are his own fault, and the castle isn't painted red.

6. How did Lord Felmet die in the end?

Answer: He fell into the Lancre gorge
