The room is incredibly messy, with many opened books and glass decanters littered across the room. Bright and glowing liquids sit inside bottles and jars and many animal test subjects are caged up. The room is seems to be very dangerous and filled with weird experiments.

I am the wizard whose spells and enchantments keep this kingdom from tottering and falling off a cliff. Every day I must use my powers over the forces of evil to keep them from wreaking havoc. I am also head of the college of wizards, so, as you might imagine, I have very little free time to pursue my hobby of embroidery.
Just be careful and don't touch anything. You'll blow us both up. Well, I wouldn't want that to happen! Now then, where were we. Oh yes, So you want to go to the wizard college, is that true? Well, it would certainly be an improvement from tailoring Sir.  The pay currently only just barely keeps my family out of the poorhouse. You don't become a wizard for the money, you must know that. Well, I could make food magically appear, yes? Yes, but even more importantly...you can turn your enemies into frogs. And frogs can also be eaten! That's between you and the frog. Is there anyone you can think of who you'd like to turn into a frog? Well, the Queen perhaps?  She is the reason I am paid so miserly. Oh no! You can't do that and you shouldn't mention that again. Who do you think pays for all of this stuff? Well, that would certainly explain how she can afford it.
