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.
I wanted to be big enough for you
to be able to ride me, so it works out.
اعتقدت أنّي أصبحت بحجمٍ يسمح
.لك بركوبي، لذا انتهزت الفرصة
Ich hatte mir gewünscht, groß genug
zu sein, dass du auf mir reiten kannst.
Quería ser grande para
que volaras conmigo.
Quería ser grande
para que volaras conmigo.
Je voulais grandir assez pour pouvoir
te porter sur mon dos !
Ho desiderato diventare abbastanza grande
da poterti trasportare,
Eu pensei que seria ótimo se pudesse
levá-la nas minhas costas.
Я захотел стать достаточно большим, 
чтобы ты могла сесть на меня верхом.
