“Many years” later, the enchantment faded, and the Imps, returning to their true forms, escaped. They found their old master, the [[witch]] [[Blinkie]], who had lost her powers, and, on her orders, stole [[Dorothy Gale]]'s [[Magic Belt]]. To avoid discovery, Blinkie used the power of the Belt to make Ozma and the Wizard forget the imps had ever existed (though the enchantment was partially blocked by [[Glinda]]), while the Imps returned to the Palace to steal Ozma's [[Magic Picture]] and disassemble the [[Red Wagon]], also stealing Glinda's [[Great Book of Records]]. Unsure what to do, Ozma convened a great number of her friends and acquaintances to a room on the first floor the Palace to discuss the situation, including the Wizard, Dorothy, [[Toto]], [[Tik-Tok]], [[Omby Amby|General Omby Amby]], [[Jellia Jamb]], [[the Glass Cat]], [[Trot]], [[the Sawhorse]], [[the Shaggy Man]], [[the Gump]], [[Flipper]], [[Eureka]], [[the Scarecrow]], [[the Lonesome Duck]], [[Cap'n Bill]], [[Jack Pumpkin Head]], [[the Hungry Tiger]], [[the Cowardly Lion]], [[the Tin Woodman]], [[Billina]], [[Ojo]], [[the Woozy]], [[the Woggle-Bug]]. Also brought to the meeting by mistake was [[Acquaintanceship-982]], who had been mistaken for Tik-Tok by General Amby. The group decided to use [[Acquaintanceship-982's Fog Ship]] to quickly comb through the Land.

They first landed in [[Munchkin Country]], where the possé met [[the Phonograph]] of Oz, who had spotted the imps. Thanks to the Phonograph's directions, Acquaintanceship knew to fly towards [[Winkie Country]], but on the way through the forest which separated the two Countries, they were attacked by three [[kalidah]]s. After evading them, they reached the mountains of [[Jinxland]] in Winkie Country, where they found not only the imps, but also Blinkie. Gloating, the Wicked Witch unveiled a field full of hundreds of imp statues, which she intended to bring to life as an unstoppable army using the [[Powder of Life]]. Acquaintanceship attempted to romanticise Blinkie right there and then, but his shot missed and instead knocked the bottle Powder out of her hands. Taking his chance, Acquaintanceship grabbed the bottle and ran off with it into his Fog Ship, but Blinkie (who had yet to realise he had the Powder and thought he was just escaping) used the Belt to cause him to crash into the forest, and transformed most of the Ozites into various objects, with only Dorothy managing to escape.

Acquaintanceship was unharmed, however, although his Ship was down. Out of other options, he used some of the Powder of Life to attempt to repair his Ship, with the effect of bringing it to life as a sentient entity. Startled, he dropped the rest of the Powder onto his [[Acquaintanceship-982's Bow|bow]] and [[Acquaintanceship-982's Arrows|arrows]], which similarly came to life. Together, they returned to Jinxland and managed to romanticise Blinkie and the Imps, who subsequently apologised to everyone and returned the magical items. However, the Ship's inexperience with flying itself caused it to crash again with Acquaintanceship itself, injuring him this time. With the Bow and Arrows finding them, however, the Imps worked with Tik-Tok to repair both of them. Healed, Acquaintanceship was offered the chance to stay in the Emerald Palace as a permanent resident but turned it down, unlike the Ship, Bow and Arrows, with Ozma decreeing that [[the Disagreeable Arrow]] would get a quiet room to himself.
