Although Merida enlists the help of Mulan and eventually Ruby, who was trapped in wolf form at the Witch's cottage for a while, Merida decides not to give into the Witch's threat. Impressed, the Witch reveals that the whole thing was set up by the late King Fergus as a test, one that Merida had passed.
