- and I expect you to act like one!

- Mum!

Oh!

Merida!

Merida!

Oh, dear.

Oh, no. What have I done?

Oh.

Angus!

Come on, Angus!

Angus!

Why would the wisps lead me here?

Oh, look around. You holler if you see anything you like.

Everything is half off.

Who are you?

Just a humble woodcarver.

I don't understand.

See anything you like?

Perhaps a touch of whimsy to brighten any dank chamber.

But, the will-o'-the-wisps! They lead...

Oh, this is one of a kind! I'll make you a deal for this rare prize.

Your broom!

It was sweeping by itself!

That's ridiculous.

Wood cannae be imbued with magical properties.

I should know, I'm a wi...whittler!

Of wood.

How about this conversation starter?

It's made of yew wood.

Half a stone.

Oh, ah ah, that's daft.

Staring is rude!

The crow... crow's talking!

That's not all I can do. La la la la.

You're a witch!

Woodcarver!

That's why the wisps led me here!

Woodcarver!

You'll change my fate!

WOODCARVER!

You see, it's my mother...

I'm not a witch! Too many unsatisfied customers.

If you're not going to buy anything, get out!

No, the wisps led me here!

I don't care!

Get out! Shoo! Get! Begone with you!

I'll buy it all!

What, what was that?

Every carving.

And how are you going to pay for that, sweetie?

With this.

Oh my, that's lovely, that is.

That will set us up for months!

Every carving and one spell.

Are you sure you know what you're doing?

I want a spell to change my mom.

That'll change my fate.

Done!

Where are you going?

There.

What're you doing?

You never conjure where you carve, very important.

Last time I did this was for a prince.

Easy on the eyes.

He demanded I give him the strength of ten men.

And he gave me this for a spell.

A spell that would change his fate.

And did he get what he was after?

Ohoho, yes. I made off with an especially atractive mahogany cheeseboard.

Now, what do I need?

That'll do.

And, now, let's see.

What have we here?

A cake?

You don't want it?

Yes, I want it!

You're sure, if I give this to my mom, it will change my fate?

Ohh, trust me.

It'll do the trick, dearie.

Expect delivery of your purchase within a fortnight.

What was that thing about the spell?

Did you say something...about...the...spell?

Merida!

Mom!

Oh...eh...I...eh...

Oh, I've been worried sick!

You, you were?

I didn't know where you've gone or when you'd come back!

I didn't know what to think! Oh, look at your dress!

Angus threw me.

But I'm not hurt!

Well, you're home now.

So that's the end of it.

Honestly?

I've pacified the lords for now.

Your father's out there "entertaining" them.

Come taste my blade you manky bear for gobbling up my leg!
