Once they had picked up all the potatoes, Peter asked Allen to use the amnis fire to burn the frozen potatoes. The result is that only a few potatoes were left, not including the ones that failed.
"Are we going to eat these failed potatoes?" asked Allen.
"Yes, even though they failed, they are still filling; we need as much food as possible for the water month."
The failed potatoes were placed in the fireplace to become roasted potatoes and be eaten immediately.
"So, how did things come to this?" asked Allen.
"As you can see, it's man-made," said Peter to Allen, "Since they didn't take the potatoes, it's not thieves. And it wasn't just our farm that was attacked; it was every farm in the Barkaley area."
"Every area?"
"Yes, all of them. The neighbor's carrot garden, onions, spinach, potatoes, mushrooms—everything was destroyed. As a result, Barkaley's farm income has halved, and everyone is now in a panic."
