Fire In Your House And In Your Heart

Our crew regathered in the vault room, passing an overjoyed Hotman as he set yet another fine establishment ablaze. Squish remembered Djuckles had made gas masks for this purpose. Djuckles remembered that he had forgotten whether he had made exploding masks or protective masks, so it was a real wild card.

They convinced Lady High Hill to retreat to her room with the chest. Djuckles and Lady High Hill escaped through the window, with Djuckles suffering a few injuries on the way down. Djuckles ran back inside the house, where he saved Lord High Hill, and told the real Captain of their plight. Patches and Squish stayed to fight for the chest. Despite three of the four gas masks exploding in their favor, it was still a tough battle.Soon they were backed into a corner, with fire behind them, and guards between them and their prize. Suddenly, the Captain burst in, beard and eyes blazing. He snatched the chest, and rescued his crew mates.

As they made a hasty retreat, Lady High Hill warned Djuckels about the true nature of the harp. It can cause anyone who hears it to obey the player, and now it's in the hands of a murderous ghost pirate.
