Thunder Hoarder of August

Afternoon storms arrive on schedule, but the thunder never leaves—it's bottled in a hermit's cellar and sold as bottled applause for playwrights. Crops wilt without noise; lovers cannot propose. Raid the cellar, negotiate release schedules with the hoarder, or steal a jar and learn what happens when thunder spoils.
