Wiring in a 1 gang 2 way Wifi switch no neutral

2 in each
L: Black with brown sheath to send power to the L terminal on switch 2, plus solid brown to send permanent power to switch 1.
L1: Brown with brown sheath - live coming from light. And a solid brown, again to send power to the L1 port on switch 2 as it won't power up without 12v to L and L1. Despite what the manual says, unless it's defective.

I now have 1 solid brown at switch 1 not connected to anything, and the grey sheathed brown isolated at each switch, not connected to anything.
So how many wires do I show in L?

I'm out
 
I've almost sorted it. To confirm

Master switch:

L = Perm live from consumer unit plus brown wire from 3 core linking switch 1 to switch 2 to provide a perm live to switch 2
L1 = Live from ceiling light, plus brown sheathed black strapper wire to provide 12v to L1 at switch 2 else it won't power on

One remaining brown wire which I assume is a loop out to kitchen. I suppose I'm supposed to shove that into the L terminal for a constant 12v supply though i'm not sure how safe that is.

Switch 2:

L = brown wire linked to 12v perm from L on switch 1
L1 = black wire sheathed brown from L1 on switch 1 to send signal and provide 12v to L1
