Listen to the last episode:
After a What-If Question mishap, Zach and Zizi decide to take matters into their own hands and save themselves from the world of Guilds & Goblins.
Lessons include: The difference between confidence and entitlement is how we face failure; caution can keep us safe, but we must leave the house to live our lives.
