Plot Summary: 
The Vengeful Lament, a shimmery purple pirate ship, with Dr. Crud III and Nesgrax on board, picks up Olive from her work at the Infernal Incarceratorium. Dr. Crud III brings Jenny, his half dragon daughter. Mendax gave Nesgrax and gang tickets to a carnival as an apology for taking so long to get him out of his underground witness protection. The Vengeful Lament drops them off at Edgemarsh. As they land, it seems to have been a frequent landing spot in days past, with an old sign that says carnival that points into the swamp. The carnival appears somewhat deserted, but the party meets the cheese goblin (who immediately offers Dr. Crud III a peanut and offends him) and the cheese witch. The cheese witch tells the party that the tickets Mendax gave them are five years out of date, but she'll still honor them. After setting up Jenny with a guard dog and a guard drone (someone's got to watch the baby while they're on their cheese trip, and Dr. Crud III does not trust the peanut-offering cheese goblin near his daughter), the three start the cheese fume dream process. Each recounts a fear and a hope that they have, in a zone of truth. Then, based upon what they say, the Cheese Witch, Brie, picks out a cheese for them from a cabinet and drops it in the fondue. The fumes engulf them, and they all enter a cheese dream state. Dr. Crud III dreams of being ten years old, at a circus, and peeing his pants. Nesgrax dreams that he is a bunny who has pooped a chocolate egg. Olive dreams that she is a princess seeking wisdom.
