Plot summary:
Patrol or Party?
Balpetor, Simmond, and Stella are on patrol duty during the day of Color Day, a holiday made by the Firebreathing Kittens to celebrate beauty, color, diversity, and art. It is evening and many townsfolk of Niqamui are still seen celebrating across the street. The party heads to Port Tie Dye Bay and decides to add more to the festivities by making snow all over the area using Balpetor’s Encanter of Endless Water and Stella’s magic. As the party heads to a game area, Balpetor, Stella, and Simmond receive a gold paper that lists specific festivities to do such as drinking and eating. The party decides to fill out the list on the golden paper and postponed their patrol duties.
Games
Balpetor and Stella arrive at a shooting game. With Simmond and Stella’s help, Balpetor won a talking racoon named Rocky. The party continues to the next carnival game revolving in strength by striking a button with a hammer propelling a piece of metal to hit a bell. Simmon participated and won a beer hat while Balpetor, with the help of Simmon’s knowledge of how carnival games work, won the max prize of bragging rights amongst the muscular competitors. 
Praying Mantis Person
During further festivities, Stella spots a Praying Mantis humanoid creature who secretly gives her a frog. The creature explains he is being chased and runs away telling Stella to care for the frog. He further mentions Stella’s brother Sterling is possible in trouble since Mantis failed to bring this frog to Sterling. Stella returns and the party finds out the frog is actually a frog of holding carrying an egg within it’s body.
Hungwy and Thuwsty
The party heads to the food court area near the beach and orders foods and alcoholic drink while tending to the frog. Simmond spots a distressed girl, Meagan Stone, who wished to speak to Stella. Finding out Meagan is having boy troubles, the party bust out in music and dance around a bonfire Simmond created cheering her up and building a rather large crowd of dancers nearby to party! 
La Petite Vi
The party has now completed the entire golden list. The paper then shows a map that leads to The La Petite Vi, a night club. As the party heads there, Stella calls her twin brother using her Sending stone. Sterling answers and tells Stella he’s being chased. He mentions La Petite Vi and the mob. The call ends with a grunt made by Sterling when a magic spell hits him. Now worried, the party heads to La Petite Vi, shows the bouncer their golden papers now completed, and enters downstairs to heavy bass music. 
Sterling Rescue
The party investigates and finds a dark elf with eyes and hair the same color as Stella and Sterling's. Sitting next to this dark elf is Don Ravioli, a member of the mafia. Don Ravioli explains all he wants is this egg and Sterling now captured in a cell, just needs to reveal where the egg is. A furious Stella convinces Don Ravioli to let her come to the interrogation. A new singer is introduced at the club as Tanager Goodfellow. At the same time, the party heads down and finds Sterling roughed up by mafiosos. During the investigation, Sterling tells Stella not to give that egg away no matter what. Stella and Balpetor prepare to escape with Sterling using force, but Simmond the Wise pulls out an ice egg he made using Shape Water that looked identical to the actual egg. Simmond hands this egg to Don Safiosi and the party escapes meeting Tanager on the way who also hints for the party to run away. 
The Guildhall
The party and Sterling run to the empty guildhall and reconvene. Stella realizes that the dark elf, Blithe Hoard, is none other than the Argentine twins' absentee father. Sterling confirms this fact, stating that Blithe was the one who sold him out to the mob. Sterling reveals the egg contains a species from a different realm that will devour and destroy the Ekenblim once and for all. Sterling heads out to investigate nesting places for this egg while the party must continue their patrol for the rest of the night. 
Moth Chase
As the party exits the guildhall with this newfound knowledge of hope, Stella and Balpetor spot a humanoid moth creature spreading what appears to be Ekenblim dust across town. They further realize all the magical colors around town contain Ekenblim dust. The party chases the Ekenblim and successfully captures it finding out that dust particles infused with Dispel Magic from Simmond can stop the Ekenblim dust. Stella then suggests creating snow like how they did in the beginning and the party creates a winter wonderland across Niqamui infused with Dispel Magic negating the harmful effects of Ekenblim Dust.
