text_A: Douglas Adams's 1982 science fiction comedy novel "Life, the Universe and Everything" – the third part of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" series – features the urn containing the Ashes as a significant element of its plot. The urn is stolen by alien robots, as the burnt stump inside is necessary to unlock an elaborate cosmic padlock (currently in storage), which is itself needed to be permanently secured on yet another layer of security known as the "Wikkit Gate" and prevent the potential liberation of an imprisoned world called Krikkit.
text_B: If the cricket tournament managed to go off without a hitch, and the Ashes remained in the hands of one of the competing teams without ever leaving Earth, would the residents of Krikkit presumably be free to leave their planet?
NO.
