-//more to come//
+Not knowing if the people at the ranch are allied with the thieves, they
+approach cautiously. The first person they meet is Frances, a young woman
+tending to the horses.  She seems friendly and escorts the group into the main
+house to meet the couple who run the place, Grace & Luke.
+After a brief discussion about the heist, Grace explains that one of their ranch
+hands, Amirah, has been acting strangely for the past week.  She summons the
+rest of her ranch hands to the house and escorts the party out back to Amirah's
+cabin.
+Once there, Leslie opens the door, which knocks over and breaks a small ceramic
+jar.  This activates a magical summons spell, and a small fire elemental creature
+known as a [[https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/5195111-magmin|Magmin]] appears.
+The Magmin immediately leaps on a pile of firewood, setting it alight and using
+it to summon another five of his brethren.  The creatures then begin scampering
+around, setting fire to everything they can see!
+In Amirah's cabin, Leslie discovers an unconscious woman on the floor under the
+bed, bound and gagged.  He manages to pull her to safety, but in the process is
+set alight by the Magmin and collapses on the ground outside.
+The rest of the party is quickly overwhelmed and struggles to coordinate in the
+resulting fight.  But once they realize that the Magmin set everything
+(including people) on fire and explode when they die, the party shifts tactics
+to keep their distance and use ranged attacks.
+In the end, the Magmin are all destroyed, but the cabins (especially Amirah's)
+and the main house have been damaged by fire, Leslie has been killed, and the
+rest of the party is scattered and wounded.
+In addition, the woman that Leslie rescued from the burning cabin is the real
+Amirah!  The ranchers and the party realize that her identity has been stolen by
+a Doppelganger!
