After a while, she switched on the [[Mechanical Fortune Teller]] and called on its abilities to check on the Cupids' progress. She was displeased to hear that they had made it out of [[Wild West Town]] and sent the [[Clay Thing]], one of her more dangerous creations, to fight them. They defeated it with the Fog Ship's help, much to Tarsa's dismay, and finally made their way to the [[Doom Room]], the final hall before the official exit of the labyrinth within the Toybox. After they defeated the giant chess pieces and the [[Mechanical Skeleton]], Tarsa decided to make herself the third and final trial, challenging the Cupids and Fog Ship to a swordfight. The Fog Ship managed to shoot out one of her eyes, however, and the trio made their escape through the exit in the time it took for Tarsa to regrow her eye and catch up to them. There, they destroyed her research on duplicating Cupid technology. Accepting her defeat, Tarsa restored the Fog Ship and sent them on their way. Before leaving, Larrikin suggested that she create [[Thymon Plushy|plushies]] based on [[Lord Thymon]] as a replacement for the Cupid-based toy line.

They turned out to be a hit, with an unknown party within the [[Cupid Homeworld]] somehow ordering large numbers of them and getting them conveyed to the Homeworld without the [[Department of Postal Services]]' involvement. The mystery got an article in Issue 1034 of ''[[The Cupid Courier]]'', where [[Philatel-426]] speculated that Thymon himself was the one purchasing and summoning them. Thymon, however, could not be reached for comment by the Cupid journalists, as he was working on his own stamp collection, and there was an alternative theory, with [[Dandy-432]] speculating that Larrikin was the one ordering them to ensure that his suggestion became a success, having made it a point of pride. Larrikin could not be reached for comment either because he ran from the journalists when they approached him, refusing to “confess” to anything.
