Simon learns that Calypso has since been kidnapped and that he must rescue the wizard in order to be able to go home. Inside the house, Simon finds a letter addressed to him from Calypso, who reveals he was responsible for bringing him into his world in hopes he could help defeat the evil sorcerer Sordid. After Simon escapes a group of goblins with Chippy's help, he soon finds his way to a village with the dog's help, and brought to home of the wizard Calypso. Simon follows after him and winds up in another world, dressed in a wizard's robe. A portal suddenly appears, which Chippy enters. Reading it, he notes it is titled 'Ye Olde Spellbooke', and unwittingly reads out a spell on one of the pages. Sometime after his birthday, Simon hears Chippy playing around in the loft, to which he discovers it holding the book in its mouth. Unknown to Simon, his parents found the dog at their front door without warning, wrapped in paper, and possessing a book that nobody could read and which was eventually dumped in the loft.
