  • Enter the garden and sneak around till you get to the fountain. Don’t directly go to the fountain, or you will get caught. While the witch is walking away as shown below, walk behind her on the sides of the garden. Anytime she turns around and faces your direction, make sure you stay behind one of the bushes, or you will get caught.
