A float-o-copier along with a [[ghost]] is responsible for making a bridge appear that connects one area of the [[Lumberlands]] to a nearby graveyard. When the party heads to the kingdom of [[Ingenia]], they are prevented access by a closed gate. They decide to use an alternative route through the graveyard, but face the problem of a missing bridge. A ghost explains that him and his friend work together to make the bridge appear, but the float-o-copier is nowhere to be found. The ghost suspects that he's goofing off in [[Harba]]. The party arrives in Harba and eventually apprehends the float-o-copier who was using his mimicry powers for mischievous purposes. He reluctantly returns to his friend and together they open up the passage again, allowing the party to continue their quest.
