Chise and Selkie climb aboard a dragon's back to meet Lindel, to have her own mage's staff made. Frustrated by Chise's acceptance of her being kept as a pet by Elias, he describes the time he found Elias in the darkness. Meanwhile, Elias, who had stayed at home by himself, receives a letter from a sorcerer's college.
You're going to ruin her if you continue to 
do nothing more than let her live with you.
ستفسدها إن استمررت بعدم فعل
.شيء سوى تركها تعيش معك
Wenn sie weiter nur bei dir lebt,
lässt du sie noch verkommen.
Vas a arruinarla si no haces
nada más que dejarla vivir.
Vas a estropearla si no haces
nada más que dejarla vivir.
Si tu la gardes sous ton toit,
elle sera perdue à jamais.
Se lasciamo che continui a vivere solo con te,
Você vai arruiná-la se continuar a fazer
 nada além de deixá-la viver com você.
Ты навредишь ей, если будешь только 
держать её рядом с собой.
