Jynx, Scarlet, Born-in-Shame and the foppish fox travel through the Whispering Wood, in search of the crater noted on a map in the submerged Blackshire Keep. Along the way, they are assaulted by vorpal bunnies … which are dispatched by one of the magical potions. (This potion happens to create a fireball to toast the creatures.)

Next, our heroes face off against three strange monsters. Jynx dispatches one and helps Born-in-Shame defeat another, while Scarlet uses the "F" wand to create a fissure that the third monster falls into. However, she breaks the wand during the combat, which greatly saddens her at the loss of the powerful artifact. However, as they travel along, the wand reforms itself, apparently belatedly responding to the use of the word "Fixed" while Scarlet was holding it earlier.

At last, our heroes reach the central clearing … but there is a large three-headed dragon there! Using teamwork, our heroes distract the monster, while Scarlet uses magic to turn invisible, get up to the dragon's "fire" head, and use the "freeze" potion to encase it in ice. They then make their way to the crater – Scarlet using the wand to cause "Fear" along the way – and discover a crystalline structure that resembles the Artifact of Calderas, in the center.

They reason that the crystal structure is missing a piece … and that this piece might be back at the Keep! On their way back to the Keep, they encounter the three-headed dragon again, but it's sleeping. Born-in-Shame refuses to slay it while it's asleep, deeming that dishonorable. Scarlet, however, goes up to the dragon – against everyone else's better judgement – and uses the wand again … this time to invoke the word, "Friends". So, it would seem that Jynx now has another three mouths to feed!
