In this episode of Story Game (A story telling game I play with my son 4y/o) Charlie Ghoul the hero and friend to all travels to the Eastern Monastery to find information about the capture of the "True Villain" many thousands of years ago. They are leaving the Sun Tree after saving The Villain from his fate and curing the Sun Tree of its sickness.

Charlie Ghoul's companions are:

The story thus far: Charlie was traveling through a forest one day and fell into a cave that happened to be full of diamonds and gems, but he bumped his head on the fall and lost some of his intellect. On the journey home, Hooty comes to the rescue and helps him find his way back to town. Upon arriving, Charlie wants to do one thing most of all, head to the store to get ingredients to make some cake for his friends. Charlie heads home and bakes a peppermint chocolate rainbow sprinkle cake, the flavor his friends like, for his friends and wants to take it to them tomorrow. Charlie realizes he has a lot of gems in his bag, so he sets a small trap by it just in case, and sure enough, some thieves visit in the night. One who is hooded and cloaked steps into the trap, the other he manages to confine, and the other, his friend Black-Air, escapes and shouts apologies as he runs away into the night. The police take away Bobby, the local ruffian, and the Masked Thief, but the Masked Thief escapes on the way to jail.

The next day Charlie takes cake around to his friends he stops by Black Airs house to find that he is gone and has potentially been kidnapped. After heading to the Jail and interrogating Bobby and forgiving him Charlie Ghoul learns of a back alley where "The Villain" lives. Heading to the alley way Charlie sneaks his way in past all the rough necks and scary folk of the alley he sees the black cloaked thief, and sees that he, a Skeleton, was the Masked Thief and the Villain behind it all. Black Air is chained up, and Charlie and Black Air exchange apologies and forgiveness, but a well placed trap by the villain along with some guards allow "The Villain" to escape with Black Air. Chewy follows the scent and that leads them to an apothecary where The Villain was getting supplies and again a well timed trap allows them to escape. From the clues and some kindness to the shop keep Charlie learns that the villain may be holed up by the desert and dried up lake by the Sun Tree. The apothecary also provides them with a trap detecting device so they wont be caught in the future.

Heading off to save Black-Air a ghostly force steals all their magical items, including the trap detector. Using his ghoulish powers Charlie communes with the spirits around and speaks with an old wizards spirit who also had the same thing happen to him and that it came from the cold mountain to the North. He recommends talking with Clause the coachman, who knows the way everywhere. They all ride the cart to the mountain and secure a guide named Khymal to take them up the mountain. Charlie gifts Clause lots of his treasure for Clauses' charity that brings toys to children around the world and is given a bell that calls Clause to take them wherever they go. They find out that their items we're stolen by the Greedy Dwarven King who banished all his subjects from the mountain and became cursed to steal things from around the world by the spirit of Greed. Charlie teaches him how to share breaking the curse and regaining his magical items. They now head to the Sun Tree to free Black-Air and confront "The Villain".
