Following their escape, they are pursued by a young girl named Kim who wants to take her father's inventions (which the Black Hammer Gang had stolen) back from them. Kim chases the thieves until both the Black Hammer Gang and Kim fall on a strange island inhabited by fairies and its guardian Michel. The Black Hammer Gang tries to steal the life source of the island (and in essence the universe since the fairies represent nature) called the tree of life. Causing damage to the land and kidnapping the fairies, Michel and Kim have to combat the Black Hammer gang and take back the fairies in order to restore balance to nature.

gollark: Wait, you can do that?!
gollark: Oh, to have enough resources to not care about a half-damaged bow taking up a 63rd of an expensive 64k cell...
gollark: In my experience it's refused to work due to items not being able to go back into storage once they're crafted.
gollark: Except if you have no space then crafting will probably also be dead.
gollark: It doesn't change much, really!
