Cthunkle left off with the impulsive ghost of Ifmas Present. Will the wicked Squidopus learn the error of his ways, or will he defeated by a sludge monster?

Lessons include: Being kind and fair can feel like a sacrifice, but it’s a very rewarding one; being unfair may not always get you punished, but it rarely brings you true happiness.
