On the way, they find two merpeople, Hansel and Gretel, who have been recruited by Gothel to steal from an underwater Blind Witch. They eventually succeed with the help of WHook and Henry, and Hansel and Gretel give the item to Gothel. Gothel then reveals that this was a test and that they had succeeded. She then trains them in magic, and has Gretel eventually join the coven.

I think that they may have meant to use “high seas adventure” as an expression, but it could be literal. Maybe Hook/Henry take on the roles of Hansel and Gretel, and the Blind Witch creates various illusions which lure them into her trap.
