Her examine text is a line from Goethe's poem "The Sorcerer's Apprentice", the basis for the Sorcerer's Apprentice sequence in Fantasia. The Apprentice can be mistaken for the Sorceress herself, who resides on the upper floor of the house. If a player go upstairs and talks to the sorceress she will become upset at the player and teleport them outside her home unless they select "I'm just passing by".
