The witches cottage has a huge cauldron in the middle of the cottage. There are shelves of glass jars that have things like spider legs, dragon toe nails, and fairy wings.  The floor is a dirt floor and the roof is made of wooden brooms.

I only mastered one spell in witch school. I can speak with inanimate objects. I use this spell in espionage. I work for the government.
You are overly cheerful today! What do you want? Oh just seeing what you were up to. Trying to master a new spell. Being able to perform only one spell is limiting! Well that sounds inconvenient. What is it something silly like being able to talk to inanimate objects? You know me well, snake! It's almost like I've read your mind! Perhaps you used a spell! I cannot say that I know any of those. I am trying to levitate this cauldron but I can't seem to get it up. That sounds like quite a problem. Am I just suffering from performance anxiety? It could be, they might make a pill for it. But what do I know I am just a snake.
