Lilac-smelling Green Cloths

The lilac-smelling green cloths were an important part of the riddle Abbess Mhera had to solve to find out that she was to be Abbess. They were green, homespun and had a faint scent of lilacs about them. On them were written words such as PITTAGALL, HITTAGALL or WITTAGALL. These were anagrams for phrases like "Patience Is The Thing A Good Abbey Leader Learns." The last cloth had ICMATOTROA written on it; this meant "I Choos Mhera As The Ottermaid To Rule Our Abbey." The cloths were put in place by Badgermum Cregga and Old Hoarg.
