After quitting his job as a newsboy with the Signtown Chronicle, enthusiastic Felix applies for an apprenticeship to work with an old, hump-backed sorcerer at his house in the Epee Mountains. After taking him in, the sorcerer teaches Felix the basics of magic and makes him to do all the chores around the house. Felix is very keen to learn all kinds of spells but is told that he must be patient. Then, one day, the sorcerer is called away and much to his dismay Felix is told to fill the cauldron with water from the Grand River Laurent on the other side of the mountain, a job that will take him all day. As soon as the sorcerer is gone, Felix decides to use a magic spell to command a broomstick to fill the cauldron with water brought in from the river, but this decision soon has disastrous consequences...
