After their latest adventures, the Brotherhood finds itself stranded on a tropical Island, which is revealed to be Wabbit Island, home of the infamous dungeon run by the Wabbit King, the guardian of the Cawwot Dofus. However, much to their surprise, a black wabbit, claiming to be the King, appears before them in the forest, claiming that a monstrous creature from below the earth has taken over his dungeon and forced him to flee, so he promises them a boat to leave the island if they help him reclaim his throne. However, something fishy is going on...


Tropes:

  • Bad Boss: The Wabbit King mentions that he uses his own subjects to find out if the tunnles they're going to expand are currently filled with gases. When Amalia, offended, asks how can he send his own people to face such terrible danger for his goals, he candidly asks if this isn't how Kings everywhere are supposed to do.
  • Catapult to Glory: Turns out, the "boat" promised by the Wabbit King is some sort of oversized cup... attached to a trebuchet, which promptly sends the Brotherhood flying to the next location.
  • Exact Words: The Wabbit King never promised a ship, he promised a boat, as he mentions near the end.
  • Dungeon Crawling: This time, the entire Brotherhood faces the Wabbit Dungeon to reach the throne room and put the Wabbit King back on the throne as the legitimate boss.
  • Final Boss: Invoked, the Wabbit King used to be the boss of the Dungeon, but he was chased away by a stronger, more monstrous entity, and now needs help to recover his throne.
  • For the Lulz: It's highly implied that the Wabbit King could have disposed of his Lenald usurper any time, he just wanted to have some fun with the heroes.
  • The Knights Who Say "Squee!": Sadlygrove is enthusiast upon encountering the legendary Wabbit King... and is determinated to help him reclaim the throne so that he can be a boss again.
  • Mini-Mecha: The Wabbits in the throne room rides in these.
  • Real Men Eat Meat: Invoked by Sadlygrove when he offers a roast fish to the Wabbit King.
    Wabbit King: No, thanks, I'm vegetawian.
    Sadlygrove: I thought you were a wabbit?
    Ruel: Vegetarian, Dally. It means that he doesn't eat meat, nor fish.
    Sadlygrove: [genuinely shocked] What does he eat then?!
  • Sole Survivor: Turns out, the usurper boss is the last remaining Lenald on the island, who was just minding his own business and doing solitaires before the Wabbit King sent his guards to arrest him.
  • Sudden Video-Game Moment: When the group falls through a trapdoor in the dungeon, they suddenly finds themselves in a big long one, encompassing several video games such as Sonic, Breakout, Space Invaders, Super Mario, Pac-Man and Street Fighter.
  • Ungrateful Bastard: Even after the group helps the King return to his throne room, he immediately orders his guards to attack them and turns hostile.
  • Unreliable Narrator: The Wabbit King. He claims that he was "innocently" passing the time doing puzzles (cue to him whacking adventurers in a wall in a puzzle-like pattern) and some dart throwing (cue to him throwing his scepter like a javelin at another running adventurer), when a monstrous creature from the darkest tunnel challenged him and took over his domain (read, the Lenald he tried to have arrested got the belongings of all his guards at cards, challenged him to poker and won everything he had).
  • The Usurper: The Wabbit King claim that an horrible monster from underground defeated him and took over his Dungeon. In truth, the usurper is the last surviving Lenald on the island, who won the entire dungeon at poker.
  • Verbal Tic: As a running gag through the episode, Wabbits pronounce the letter "r" as "w", while Lenald pronounce the same letter as "l".
  • Wave-Motion Gun: The secret technique of the Wabbit King, the Wamewamewa.
  • You Kill It, You Bought It: When Sadlygrove defeats the Wabbit King, he proceed to take his crown, cape and scepter for himself and rule over the dungeon... until he sees that it involves lots of boring and tedious work, so he gives everything back to the Wabbit King and calls it a day.
