After Hansel and Gretel got rid of the witch,
they lived a pleasant life with their father.
But they still wondered about her whereabouts.
They always talked about it when they went to bed at night.
What are you thinking about, Hansel?
The same thing again?
Yes, the witch's treasure haunts me.
I wonder where she got so much gold.
I'd like to know that, too.
Maybe there is a way to find out.
Is that so?
What is it?
We can go to the witch's house and look for clues.
I really don't want to that house again.
We must learn about the source of her treasure.
When the children arrived at the house...
It was no longer what it used to be.
Wasn't it a gingerbread house made of cake?
What is this horrible thing?!
It was a spell she cast to trick children.
When the witch disappeared, so did her spell.
They looked around to find out where the witch got the gold.
I found something...
It's a map.
And it has a text below.
Elves live under the rainbow where jewel-filled pots overflow.
Who are the elves?
Where is this country?
There is a marked place on the map.
It must be there!
Someone is at the door!
Who are you, guys?
Hey, don't run!
I guess they were afraid of us.
I wonder what's in them?
Ah, they're filled with gold!
These must be the Elves mentioned on the map!
What are we going to do?
Let's go to the country marked on the map.
I think the answer lies there!
The forest is a scary place at night.
I wish we never came.
We can't turn back now.
We'll go on our way in the morning.
I heard something!
Could it be a wild animal?
The children looked around.
But they couldn't see anything.
Don't be afraid.
It's probably just a squirrel.
When the sun rose, they set off again.
Hansel, look over there!
How beautiful!
Wow!
It's the rainbow mentioned on the map.
The land of the elves must be there!
When they were just on the road again….
Oh no!
We got trapped.
These are the elves who ran away from us!
Let us go!
I'm afraid! What are we going to do?
The elves took them directly to their village.
When Hansel and Gretel saw the golden village they were surprised.
Wow!
Look at these houses.
They're all made of gold!
What will they do to us?
Finally, they were brought to a beautiful elf-lady with a crown on her head.
I am the queen of the rainbow country.
It is a serious offense to enter our country!
You will be on trial tomorrow!
In the evening,
the children were sitting in a cage brooded over what had happened.
How do we get out of here?
Don't worry, Gretel.
The queen doesn't look like a bad person.
When we explain, she will understand.
The next day the children were taken in front of the queen and were put on trial.
So you came here stealthily to steal our gold!?
No, we are not here to steal your gold.
We just…
So why did you come?
To kidnap our children?
Why would we kidnap them?!
To take them to the witch, of course!
You had the map!
You are guilty!
But you don't understand.
We…
Hush!
Don't deny it!
I sentence you to sift flour in the stone mill for life!
We are not guilty, please!
They don't look like naughty children, ​​my queen​​.
We should listen to them.
Tell us then.
Why did you have the witch's map?
Hansel and Gretel explained everything to the queen what was happened and why they came to Elf Land.
Hmm…
So, the witch imprisoned you in her house,​​ but you escaped?
Then, we found the map in her house.
..And these curious children came this far .
The queen believed the children's story and found them innocent.
She told them how the witch got the gold.
If we didn't send her gold, she would take our children.
She gathered so much gold from us she became rich.
This is why you were leaving gold at her door.
You no longer have to send any.
Your children are safe!
Are they safe?
But how?
Because the witch disappeared !
She can no longer harm anyone!
The queen and the elves were delighted when they heard this news.
We got rid of the witch!
Yayy!
Finally, it was time for the children to go back.
We owe you.
Take this gold as our gift.
Thank you!
Good-bye!
They went back home happily, knowing they had made new friends.
