White Turban


White Turban
White Turban
Type Hat
Location Tailoring; Skull Cavern

The White Turban is the most expensive thing a Sewing Machine can be asked to make, because the item on the spool is a Sweet Gem Berry. That berry is the single most valuable crop in the valley and it is also the gift Old Master Cannoli wants in the Secret Woods in exchange for a Stardrop, so cutting one up for a hat is a genuinely costly decision. There is a kinder route: treasure rooms deep in the Skull Cavern sometimes hold the turban outright, and it shows up now and then among the rare finds on the dangerous floors of the Mines. Either way it is a late hat with an unusually grand look, white silk trimmed in blue.


Location


The berry comes from a Rare Seed, and Rare Seeds come from the travelling merchant who parks at the north end of Cindersap Forest on Fridays and Sundays. She asks a thousand gold apiece for them in the warmer seasons and sometimes carries them out of season too. A seed planted in Fall takes most of the season to mature, it does not come back after harvest, and the berry it gives sells for thousands.

That is the catch with sewing one. The first berry a farm ever grows usually goes to Old Master Cannoli in the Secret Woods, who trades it for a Stardrop and a permanent lift in stamina, and that trade can only be made once. The second berry is worth a small fortune in the shipping bin. The turban therefore costs either a Stardrop or a very good payday, which is why many farmers go looking for the hat underground instead.

The Skull Cavern route starts with the Skull Key from the bottom of the Mines. Treasure rooms turn up at random on the floors below the tenth, and their loot pool is wide, so finding the turban in one is luck rather than planning. Bombs and staircases are the way to cover enough floors for luck to matter. The same hat also appears among the rare items that the hard version of the Mines gives up, on the floors reached during Qi's Danger In The Deep order or after the switch at the bottom has been thrown.

Effect


The turban wraps the head in pale cloth with a band of blue around the base, taller and smoother than the farm hats. It carries no bonus, since a hat in this game is only a picture, so it earns its place on looks alone. It is one of the most formal items in the wardrobe and it suits long coats and dresses rather than overalls. Next to a Straw Hat it makes the same farmer look like a visiting dignitary.

Notes


The sewing itself is ordinary. Emily's machine at 2 Willow Lane takes Cloth in the feed and the berry on the spool, and the machine posted out for her Rock Rejuvenation order does the same at home. Since the turban cannot be sold back afterwards, a farmer who sews a berry has converted thousands of gold into a hat permanently, and a Seed Maker fed with a berry at least returns seeds for the next planting.
