Should that new haversack have some newbie bread in it? And maybe when you look in it and eat a piece of that newbie bread, there could be a prog that says something like "You're only given so much bread to begin your journey. You'll need to visit a shop that sells food. Try Simon.". Or something that effect anyway? The newbie pot of water comes filled, which is good.
