## Plot

Hop and Willby return from the first Busy Bees, having found the house of the Hag who originally terrorised their village. Their compatriots have departed, and the hag's unfortunate son is dead, and they hold his ashes in an urn. Entering the house, they look for the hag - who is not home, and discover the trapped Majesty, Clint and Pickle. Freeing them, all three reveal that they have been trapped by the hag for a very, VERY long time, and it appears to have particularly affected Pickle, who seems to be somewhat agoraphobic, and Clint who just seems... odd.

Once freed, the animals find the Hatbox of Dahlver-Nar (see below), and discover that the hag is on holiday. Wearing various hats and with various terrifying abilities the rabbits head through the hag's cauldron portal, and find themselves in Hades, in a town called Darkpool (a reference to British seaside resort Blackpool). Heading onto a long pier extending into what turns out to be the River Styx, the animals make their way past dream-candyfloss sales-demons, charm their way past the door-demodand, and manage to avoid a dancehall where people simply cannot stop dancing.

Finding an amusement park at the end of the pier, they find the hag queuing for the rollercoaster, which they join her on - enjoying themselves despite the tension. The hag begins to realise that something is afoot, but the animals manage to trap her in a dominate spell, and debate how to handle her. They end up asking the musicians with the never-ending song and dance to play in her home for her, and leave with the hatbox - from which Clint pulls a baseball cap with an ominous-looking tarrasque...

## Hats

The animals discover a hatbox which, upon opening, reveals a new hat for them to wear. This is the Hatbox of Dahlver-Nar - a reskin of the Teeth of Dahlver-Nar, a classic D&D item.
