Chapter 1: The Witches of the Candy Forest
Jenny Everywhere has travelled to Reality B-89 54-Z and is preparing to enter the allegedly-haunted Candy Forest in search of a legendary witch called Grandmother Ginger. She spots a colourful shack on the edge of the forest and knocks at the door. The old woman who greets her, Old Mother Westwind, explains that this shack did in fact use to be Ginger's residence, but Ginger has now fled deeper into the Forest. Confirming that she is also a witch, Westwind agrees to join Jenny in looking for her.
Chapter 2: The Spider
Jenny Everywhere and Old Mother Westwind have been travelling through the Candy Forest for three days when Westwind, tired of eating nothing but sweets, decides to go hunting, having heard the yelps of some animal in the distance. While she's away, Jenny waits under a tree, daydreaming about what led her to this adventure. However, she hears sounds of a struggle between Westwind and a monster and rushes to help. She finds Westwind lying on her back with what appears to be a claw embedded in her chest — and a giant spider with purple stripes standing over her. Jenny attacks the spider, shifting a bucket of water into its mouth and kicking it; but instead of fighting back, the spider talks, and shapeshifts back into a spindly old woman in a striped purple dress — none other than Grandmother Ginger. When Ginger addresses her as her niece, Jenny finds the memories of her local incarnation flooding back to her, albeit in disorder, but she has little time to dwell on this new information when the real attacker makes his presence known, refusing to give his name.
