Lull it to sleep, then make sure you wind up wherever Fires came from.

Game Instructions: This will be easier if Mr Fires is unaware of the contents of the drug you analysed. To create the dish, you will need to start by creating a pickle in your Station VIII kitchen.

Success

A Master, plied

Mr Fires looks a little surprised by the flavour of the aspic, but it does eat the dish […] few minutes later, the light sources in the dirigible are banked, and Fires is snoring.

Description summary:
The end of the last paragraph changes with your Station VIII: Darkness level.

Station VIII: Darkness	Description
0 - 2	Its excessive illumination means you know exactly where you're headed: a little north, a little west, but chiefly up.
3 - 4	It is lit brightly enough to continue to serve as a beacon, showing your bearings, for quite some time, as you head slightly northwest and very much upwards.
5	It is lit brightly enough to continue to serve as a beacon for a little while, but it is occluded by mist and darkness long before you finish your rise to the ceiling.
6 - 7	It is so dark that you soon lose sight of it, and cannot use it to take your bearings.

Failure

Suspect

It eyes the dish you present. It sniffs the dish. It extends one talon into the aspic. Then it shakes its hooded head. It will not deign to consume this, thank you.
