Going along with the current story "...And I Will Tell You What You Are," 
steamfox has added his contribution.
He takes the point in the story where Sturmhilde Drangsdottir has been exploring the basement of the Master's Lodge (with the assistance of her plushie ice cube, seen in upper right), and she discovers a mysterious stove (properly, Stove) that was installed in the basement in error many years before, and had been forgotten.
Leaving aside the lovely draughtsmanship of the drawing (a hallmark of steamfox), there's another hallmark of his, which is the insertion of small jokes in the details. I'm probably missing quite a few, but I notice, among other things (or was told!): (1) there are little slips of paper in the wine-rack to the left, evidence of Estvan Silverbrush's honesty in "borrowing" wine; (2) the supports for the Stove at the bottom are sphinxes (something beloved of steamfox); (3) there's a rolling-pin status readout (just above Stormy's left bicep); and (4) a number of other interesting readouts, steamfox's interpretation of how the stove works (the drawing in the centre is definitely worthy of very close inspection).
Drawings like this, based on my story-work, bring joy to my life.

Reminiscent of late 19th and early 20th Century illustrators, American, English and German. The glowing cube in particular brings that style to mind.
I don't recommend adjusting that crank on the stack until she's had tetanus and flue shots.
I don't recall the wood stove in my Dad's workshop being a Hedgehog, (actually, IIRC, it was a Quaker Gem), but this one looks like it needs a cleaning and a blacking. It might make for a warm friendship.
