  1. Charles Orleans, the castle cook: Put on a Chef Hat, then talk to Charles Orleans in the kitchen of Prontera Castle (prt_cas, 324,200). Keep about 2,000 weight free. Any answers will do: he picks one of six simple dishes at random and tells you which ingredients to bring. You must wear a Chef Hat on your head, Novices are turned away, and Charles wants about 2,000 weight free. Without the hat he only talks about fashion and sends you off. Ask Madeleine Chu next door if you forget what a dish needs.
