The monster tells Conor the second tale about the Apothecary and the parson
Slide: 2
The Apothecary was bitter and grew even more bitter. He was an unpleasant man. He charged too much for his cures but still thought the villagers should treat him with respect. Then, the villagers seeked more modern remedies from other healers, which of-course made the apothecary even more bitter.
One day, the parson's daughter fell ill and the parson swallowed his pride and went to the apothecary to beg for forgiveness so the apothecary would heal his daughters. However, even with the option of receiving the yew tree to save the parson's daughters, the apothecary refused to help.
The parson was an enlightened man and a kind one. He preached against the Apothecary's use of old ways and his temper which fell on eager ears. This caused the Apothecary's business to shrink.

The monster said the parson was in the wrong and the monster destroyed his home. He expected the parson to give the apothecary the yew tree when the apothecary first asked. The parson believed selfishly and fearfully, and it took the lives of his daughters. In the end, the parson's house was destroyed.
While the monster and Conor destroyed the parson's house in the other world, Conor unknowingly destroyed his grandmother's living room, which he only found out that he did in the end.
