Season #1 Episode #18: Agony of a Witch

---

Willow:
Yeah! You can't miss this!

Principal Bump:
All aboard students!

[Willow and Gus head for the ship, dropping the book. Luz looks at it.]

Luz:
Mmm. [picks up book] You've done so much for me, Eda. Now I'm gonna do something for you.

[Cut to the flying ship headed for the Emperor's Castle. Students on board are cheering.]

Principal Bump:
No roughhousing! Do not make me turn this carriage around!

[Cut to Luz's notebook. She has drawn the Healing Hat and written: "HEALING HAT HEIST 1. Sneak into castle! 2. Steal healing hat 3. Lift curse".]

Willow:
Hey Luz!

Luz:
Ah! [hides notepad] Um, what was that, Willow?

Willow:
I was just saying we were getting close to the castle. [she and Luz look over the side of the ship] Emperor Belos built it as a symbol of unity. Before he came to power, folks were doing magic all wrong. He taught us that the only way to respect what the Titan gave us is through joining covens.

[Luz looks doubtful.]

Willow:
It's a shame Amity couldn't make it. She would LOVE this trip.

[Cut to Amity's bedroom. She's lying in bed with her feet propped up on a pillow, one of them still in a cast. She looks at a poster on her wall of Lilith posing with a sword, the words "Join the Emperor's Coven TODAY!" written under her.]

Amity:
Shut up.

[Cut back to the ship.]

Luz:
So, Willow... would you say this Belos guy is like, powerful?

Willow:
[chuckles] No offense to Eda, but the Emperor is the most skilled witch that's ever lived. He can even talk to the Titan.

[The ship lands in front of the castle. Towering doors open.]

Principal Bump:
Now, the Emperor's assistant will be your tour guide. Please don't make me regret taking you here.

[Kikimora stands on a platform as a bridge extends to the ship.]

Class:
Whoa! Look at that! [gasp] It's massive!

[The bridge retreats, bringing the students closer to Kikimora.]

Kikimora:
Children of Hexside, Emperor Belos welcomes you to his castle. We're honored by visits from students. You'll soon be a part of the coven, some lucky few may even find their home here, in the mighty Emperor's Coven!

Class:
She looked at me! Wow, some!

Kikimora:
You... are the future of the Isles! My job is to teach you its past.

[They enter the castle. Guards flank either side of a hallway, saluting, as others walk on overpasses. The walls are covered in tapestries, murals, and statues.]

Class:
Ooh. Whoa!

Kikimora:
Today, the Isles are a place of peace and prosperity. But that wasn't always the case. [gestures to a mural of witches dancing around a fire] Up until 50 years ago, witches and demons practiced wild magic during what we called the Savage Ages. [leads the students away] Witches had access to corrupt knowledge, and that dishonored the Titan.
