Plot Summary: 
Xandu Miller came to Firebreathing Kittens with a special greeting for Danthel Ababar, the person who gave him the massive scar on his face. Danthel happens to not be in at the moment, but Borb and Crud Jr. are in the bar. Crud Jr. warns him that if he picks a fight with one Firebreathing Kitten, he picks a fight with them all. Xandu says no no, not a fight. A free sample. He opens a briefcase full of two inch long black vials. Would Crud Jr. care for a free sample? Crud Jr. hesitantly accepts, as does Borb. Pop it in your mouth, give it a crunch, and suck out the sweet sweet health potion on the inside. Although hesitant, Crud Jr knows that health potions are very expensive. He waits for Borb to try it. Borb declines. He asks Xandu to try it. Xandu replies, "Happily!" and pops one in his mouth and crunches it. Crud Jr suspiciously does the same, and finds that he gains 20 temporary hit points (a lot). He's impressed, but even more suspicious. 
A denture maker has hired the Firebreathing Kittens (Nulisag has written up a job flier) for them to knock the wart-rat-hogs of Iutop Fields out and harvest some ivory. The denture maker says they'd go themselves (how dangerous can an open field be?) but they'd lose customers if they weren't present in their shop. Crud Jr. and Borb check the map, find Iutop Field, and start to head off. Xandu asks to join. Crud Jr. asks how much for his services, knowing that healing potions are often 300 gold each. Xandu says each potion will be ten gold. Suspicious but figuring worst case scenario they can use Xandu for bait, the adventurers say yes to Xandu coming with. They set off for Iutop Field in Crud Jr's carriage. 
Arriving at Iutop Field, there are indeed wart-rat-hogs. They are one ton each or so animals: five butts and tails sticking up from the waving grass. Xandu stays in the carriage. Borb charges at them and Crud Jr follow 120 feet behind Borb. A combat happens, and Borb and Crud Jr kill the wart-rat-hogs. They also discover two elves, Jay and Anastasia Tolbeque, who were hiding in the tall grasses possibly trying to take down the wart-rat-hogs themselves but afraid they weren't strong enough. Xandu pitches the TruHelth health potion vials, and Borb demonstrates you can crunch them and they are safe. Jay is impressed and immediately buys six for sixty gold. They all head back together. During the carriage ride back to Niqamui, Jay and Borb both say yes to joining TruHelth to become salespeople of it and invest in themselves. Anastasia shakes her head, and Crud Jr although he wasn't in the carriage, also thinks it's a pyramid scheme. Back in Niqamui, everyone goes their separate ways and Jay and Borb plan to go to the TruHelth training session later that day. 
Borb and Crud Jr show up at the TruHelth mansion so Borb can get trained. Crud Jr takes someone else's name tag, Charles Furlanetto. Borb enjoys some free cheese cubes. They sit in on a training: Crud Jr is bored and suspicious and Borb is getting excited. The lady, Lily Herron, talks about their founded, and shows a picture of his attractive face and has some books with his face on the back. Crud Jr sees Anastasia there and she tells him she's looking for her brother, Jay. Crud Jr asks Anastasia if it's possible he's backstage in the important people area, and she says that's unlikely; he just joined today. He's just a newbie. All three set out to look for him. Crud Jr sets off fireworks in the main hall so that the guards will be distracted. They don't notice it was him, but the lady at the front desk with the name cards, already suspicious because he took the Charles Furlanetto name tag and poor Charles came in later looking for his and not being able to find it, notices that it was Crud Jr who set off the fireworks and kicks him out. Crud Jr says all right, no problem, and heads outside, sets off some fireworks out there so they can all tell he's gone outside, then turns invisible and comes back inside. He rejoins Borb and Anastasia as they're heading into a staff only section. Down a hallway, down some stairs. Borb can't read so the signs don't deter him. 
They reach a magically locked door that the vast majority of people would never be able to get inside. It has a riddle on it, so if you're "in the know", you can get in. Borb can't figure out the riddle. Crud Jr. also can't. But, he has magic, and he uses the magic to magically pass through the wall next to the door. They enter the secret, off-limits area. There are four beds, with blankets on them, and a body on each bed under a blanket. The bodies' chests are rising rhythmically, so they're not dead. But they're not moving. Anastasia rushes over to the bed in the back left, recognizes her brother, sees a four inch long one inch white green and brown striped oval on his cheek, and screams. The scream is loud. Suddenly, a dagger like triangle tipped tail and a pitch fork slash out at her, and she crumples to the ground, injured and possibly dying, and a business suit wearing man was the culprit. He has the same face that was on the back of the books earlier. In the fight, Crud Jr. heals Anastasia and she rushes out to get help, opening the locked door on her way out and leaving it open. Crud Jr. and Borb defeat Bonaventura Halevy (devils go back to hell instead of dying), but kill Jay in the process. Anastasia rushes back in the room with Lily Herron, who clearly had no idea this was going on. They pull back the blankets and reveal that the four inch long one inch wide green and brown striped ovals are leeches, who turn into the black one inch vials when they're done feeding from their victims. Borb, enraged the he was tricked into eating a crunchy leech body or waste product or something, goes on a rampage. Lily Herron freaks out. Anastasia calls the authorities. Crud Jr. calmly walks past the swarming authorities and raging minotaur and pale MLM speaker and grieving Anastasia and just walks away. Later, in hell, Bonaventura tells his friend Beelzebub that he would have gotten away with it, if it weren't for those darn ... he thinks of Borb's tattoo, clearly visible... Firebreathing Kittens.
