My thoughts exactly. I thought it was a bit of a mean trick really; not that I think it should have been left out, but it's a little rough that only Helen's team wound up in that kind of situation.

TRANSFORMATION:

Has anyone mentioned alchemy?

I'll bet there was a guard who needed to be bribed somewhere further along the quest, and the next room after Mogdred contained a bar of lead.

I often wonder what the "Power to Rule" potion would've done (I think it was from Se7?)

Transformation - Maybe it was intended to turn a worthless artefact into the quest object?
But - ...Maybe it was as in the Scottish use of the term for a front or outer room, or a kitchen especially in a cottage?
Shovel (Or was it Spade?) - *clonk*, like Anvil.
Medal - Make her move faster, like a medal winning Olympian, maybe?

I have always lived in Scotland and never heard the word "but" used to mean room or kitchen in my whole life! ;D

The only connection I can think of is "But'n'ben" which is a long unused word for a small 2-roomed holiday cottage (and I only know this from a history lesson!), where "but" did indeed refer to the kitchen and "ben" referred to the living room.

But as far as I know it's only ever been used as a phrase: But'n'Ben. The word "but" on it's own is not used to mean room or kitchen or anything other than the usual meaning of "but" in modern English :)

And even if it was, that's kind of ambiguous for a spell - even for Knightmare!!

I suspect "but" quite simply would have made Mogdred change his mind. He was all set to kill, "But... maybe I'll let you live a little longer."

Following the Scottish connection, maybe when the BUT spell was cast, a drunk Glaswegian would have materialised and honoured Mogdred with a Glasgow 'kiss'.

Well it's possible, but take it from someone who used to live in Glasgow, it's a lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-ong walk from the Highlands...
