Dear Laura,
I purposely set off the volcano in the Desert Terrarium but something clogged up the machinery. Now lava is continuously flowing within the desert and I fear it will spread to the rest of the Ark! Would should I do? If the lava reaches the air lock at dissolves the doors, the whole ship's life could be sucked out into space! Please, oh, please help me!

Dear Vakerik,
Thank Shee that the lava from the volcano runs thick and slowly, so you will have time to put the following plan into action; just imagine you?re in the middle of your very own disaster movie! I'm afraid you may have to sacrifice the Aquatic Terrarium to quench the lava. Hurry and evacuate the Ettins to safe ground, and as you make your dash for the exit, be sure to leave the entrance to the Aquatic Terrarium open. As the lava flows through the desert and into the aquarium, it will solidify on contact with the water. Unfortunately, this means that all the sea life will die, but the Hand can easily replenish its stock. The Desert Terrarium will be quite uninhabitable for a time, but once the volcanic glass begins to break down, the desert will bloom. Don't worry about the volcano producing lava eternally, the unusually large quantities of lava will have melted the faulty mechanism away, and the volcano will settle back into a natural cycle. Maybe when the lava has cooled, you could use it to sculpture some kickin' statues to decorate the place. I?ve always thought the Desert Terrarium could do with some flair.
