As Pha takes off and heads for open water, the flapping tarp looks as though it will unfurl and drag the small craft away on the wind, but somehow it holds. Once over water Pha lowers the craft and fills the makeshift contraption. They whine of the engine as he attempts to rise up again is terrifying...
...but he makes it. Somehow, beyond what anyone would have believed, now that the water is in the bag, the true genius of the design can be seen. That last loop around the machine gives Pha enough leverage that he is able to distribute the water in a directed fashion at the flames. The building collapses do to the structural damage and the added weight of the water. Smoke and ash blind and sting the eyes of the gathered crowd....
When their vision returns though they see that the fire has been put out, that the aldiea has been saved. Small embers till glow among the wreckage, but the threat has ended. The future is still very uncertain for Uncegilla Cove, but tonight it is safe.

Heck yeah a 20 on the hail Mary will will put out the flames. Good work on all that. I am about to pass out from lack of sleep, so XP and aftermath stuff will come in the morning. Feel free to narrate some stuff about how the villagers treats your characters as the heroes they are.
