Season #1 Episode #18: Agony of a Witch

---

[Luz stops at a grate.]

Kikimora:
That was, until our great Emperor ascended to the throne, and taught witches how to use magic properly. [gestures to a mural of Belos holding up a beam of light, witches below celebrating his power] Our next stop is the Emperor's personal collection of relics.

Willow:
Oh! Luz, you'll like this. It's where- huh?

Luz:
[struggling to open vent, notices Willow and Gus looking at her] Heh... Uh, love me a properly ventilated castle!

[Luz follows the rest of the group. Cut to a door opening.]

Kikimora:
The Relic Room. These items are reminders of our great Emperor's overwhelming power. [passes the Oracle Sphere] From the curious and mighty.

Gus:
Oooh.

Kikimora:
[passes the Green Thumb Gauntlet] To the very handy.

Willow:
Oh, I could grow such beautiful things with that.

Kikimora:
[passes by the Healing Hat] And even, the most valuable.

[Luz stares at the Hat as Willow is admiring the Gauntlet.]

Kikimora:
Come along, children.

[Willow goes to catch up. Luz starts walking towards the Healing Hat, but Gus runs up and drags her along.]

Gus:
Let's go, Luz!

[Cut to a hallway.]

Kikimora:
Here at the Emperor's Coven, we require members with sophistication, elegance, and grace.

[A door slams open. Lilith is standing there, leaves in her disheveled hair. She spits out feathers and vanishes her staff, then enters.]

Luz:
[gasps, ducks around a corner]

Kikimora:
Ahh! Make way for Miss Lilith Clawthorne, students.

Class:
Oh, my gosh. The head of the coven! Wow!

Kikimora:
Yes, and if I'm not mistaken, she's on here way to see the Emperor himself. Let's all wish her luck!

Class:
Good luck Miss Lilith!

Lilith:
[blushes, inhales] Thank you, students. Good luck with puberty.

Kikimora:
This way, children.

[Most of the class follows Kikimora down the hall as Lilith enters a door. Luz looks after Lilith.]

Luz:
Hmm.

[Cut to Lilith walking through the halls, Luz tailing her out of sight. The closer to the Emperor's room they get, the more pipes are visible snaking around the walls. Luz is nearly caught, but ducks behind a corner before Lilith turns around. When she continues on, Luz peeks. Lilith stops at a massive door to clean herself up before entering. Luz runs up and watches through the keyhole.]

[Inside is a massive throne room. A beating green heart, far larger than would belong in any current living creature, is hooked up to pipes above the golden throne, which is flanked with flaming braziers. Various guards are standing around the room, one with a mask resembling an owl standing directly behind the throne. Belos himself is sitting on the throne, his head in his hand. Lilith approaches the throne and kneels.]
