Description

The Sugar Apple Is the Tree of Betrayal At the doctor's inn, fellow guest and sugar artisan Hugh tasks Anne and Jonas with making confections in exchange for him paying for their stay. Despite producing good confections, Hugh criticizes Jonas for lacking ingenuity and Anne for lacking creativity. He smashes their confections, but agrees to pay for their stay. That night, Challe recalls the time when he befriended a human girl named Elizabeth 15 years ago, but she was killed by humans leading him to mistrust humans. The next day, Anne prepares to make her entry confection, but finds out that her supply of silver sugar has mysteriously vanished. With help from Jonas, she finds some sugar apples just in time to replenish her supply of silver sugar and make her entry piece. However, Jonas betrays Anne by having Cathy splatter Anne with blood from raw meat to attract a pack of wolves that forces Challe to protect her, using that distraction to steal Anne's wagon with her confection in it and make his getaway.
