Abstract: For $rgeq1$ and $mathbfninmathbb{Z}_{geq0}^{r}setminusmathbf0$, we construct the compactified moduli space $overline{2mathcalM}_{mathbfn}$ of witch curves of type $mathbfn$. We equip $overline{2mathcalM}_{mathbfn}$ with a stratification by the 2-associahedron $W_{mathbfn}$, and prove that $overline{2mathcalM}_{mathbfn}$ is compact and metrizable. In addition, we show that the forgetful map $overline{2mathcalM}_{mathbfn}ooverline{mathcalM}_r$ to the moduli space of stable disk trees is continuous and respects the stratifications.
