The Dink Network

I just started playing S.O.B., and already I can't get the skull, or the bottle of wine to give to the circle so that I can get Hellfire. My question is: will I be able to get Hellfire later, or is there something else I can trade to the circle with?
I made it to the next chapter, but the jeanie didn't offer Hellfire majic. How do I go about building a bridge to go to the wizard, and where should I do this? I NEED hellfire or something stronger to kill the purple boncas. Any help?!
