Pepper walks away from the house of the witches of Chaosah with a heavy backpack on her shoulders and Carrot attached to her leg. In the background, the three witches are standing on the front porch, looking sadly at Pepper.

Cumin looks sadder than the rest of the witches and shakily addresses Pepper.

Cumin says: “But Pepper… Come back…”

Pepper frowns and looks angrily over her shoulder.

Pepper shouts: “NO! I’M LEAVING!!”

Pepper says: “You don’t teach real witchcraft! I’m going - to the witches of Ah!”

Pepper and Carrot fly away from the house on Pepper’s broom, making a woosh sound as it reaches dark clouds in the sky.

Sound: “Woosh !”

Cumin looks away, while Cayenne and Thyme stare into the sky.

Surrounded by dark clouds, Pepper floats on her broom, turning back towards Carrot who’s hanging from her backpack.

Pepper says: “Alright then, off to the land of the setting moons. Shichimi can tell us how to join the witches of Ah.”

“Carrot, get out the map and compass: it’s too cloudy to see where I’m going”

Mouth wide-opened, Carrot opens the backpack, grabs the map with his left paw and the compass with his right paw.

Pepper looses control over her broom and as they both dive down, the content of her backpack is lost in the sky.

Pepper shouts: “DRATS! Turbulence! HOLD ON!”

A dark tornado lies in front of them, as thunder strikes mere meters away from the broom.

Sound: “BrrOoooOoo!!”

Pepper shouts: “Oh no!!!”

They crash into a tropical forest, as the broom snaps in two above the treeline.

Sound: “CrrAsh!!”

As they lay unconscious on a floor made of rocks covered with moss, Carrot dizziliy opens his eyes.

Shocked by this vision, Carrot wakes Pepper up who stares at something from the corner of her eyes.

Now sitting on a floor filled with the bones of other living creatures, Pepper faces a monster who’s clearly thinking about them as its next meal.

Pepper stares into the monster’s eyes, mimicking Cayenne with a wheat straw in her hand.

Pepper says: “Above all, don’t panic, Carrot…”

The monster stares back, no longer looking like much of a threat.

Forehead to forehead, Pepper continues to stare into the monster’s eyes as she quotes Cayenne. The monster sweats profusely under this threat.

Pepper and Cayenne say: “A good dark stare is worth a dozen useless curses! … Stare them down. Dominate them!”

Scratching her head as she speaks, Pepper holds Carrot in her arms. In the background, the monster runs away while crying.

Sound from Monster: “Wah!! Aah!!”

Pepper says: “Personally, I would’ve preferred to learn a few good attack spells; but anyway…”

“shoot… no more broom or equipment, this is going to be a long trip…”

The desert stretches across the horizon. From this perspective, Pepper and Carrot look like two small figures. The land is mostly barren, but a few plants are visible across the dunes.

Carrot holds his paws on his belly, as his empty stomach makes a sound. Pepper wipes the sweat from her forehead as she leans on a large stick.

Sound from Carrot: “Groo”

Pepper says: “I’m totally worn out too Carrot… And it’s been days since we’ve eaten anything.”

Staring at a plant that looks like a giant radish, Pepper makes her best impression of Cumin.

Pepper and Cumin say: “To know the edible plants is to know where to find ready-made potions against hunger!”

Sitting on the floor, Pepper and Carrot are both eating these giant radishes, looking hardly impressed by their meal.

Pepper says: “But real potions?… If only she had taught me a single one!”

In a different land, Pepper and Carrot arrive at a crossroad in the middle of the night. With eight different potential directions, Pepper points towards one of them.

Pepper stares into a brightly lit sky full of stars.

Pepper and Carrot are both holding walking sticks. From the look of Pepper’s hair and clothes, the toil of their trip can be seen. Pepper makes her best impression of something that Thyme would typically say.

Pepper and Thyme say: “A true witch of Chaosah needs neither compass nor map. A starry sky will suffice”

Pepper says: “… I would’ve preferred a real course in divination!”

In a land where three moons can be seen in the sky, Pepper drops her walking stick and points excitedly in front of her, waving hello with her other hand.

Pepper says: “Cheer up Carrot! Look, we’ve arrived!”

Shichimi waves back with both hands. In the background, we can see temples half hanging in the sky, with waterfalls dropping from these pieces of land.

Pepper, Shichimi and their companions are all sitting in the grass, enjoying a cup of hot tea while chatting.

Pepper says: “… so there you are. Now you know the whole story.”

Shichimi says: “… so there you are. Now you know the whole story.”

Pepper and Carrot look back in astonishment, suddenly realizing that they couldn’t have accomplished what they did without the lessons learned in Chaosah.

Back in Chaosah, Pepper and Carrot hug all three witches on the front porch of their house. A happy ending for everyone, especially the three witches who can barely contain their surprise.
