Gus:
And we'll be here to save her when she needs us!

Willow:
Let's split up and find her!

[Zoom out to see Lilith watching the crowd from a window]

Kikimora:
Fools! You let the human escape! And you drew her a map?

Lilith:
Worry not, Kikimora. I shall capture the human.

[Cut to a hallway, where two guards are hanging in vines from the ceiling, another can only be seen by his legs, a fourth is holding his hands in front of a fire, and a fifth is encased in ice. Luz walks away from the scene, running to a padlocked set of double doors]

Luz:
King, watch the door.

King:
Weh.

[Luz steps forward and places an ice glyph on the lock, freezing and breaking it. She enters the room and pulls out a light glyph]

Beast Eda:
[growling off screen]

Luz:
Eda? Eda!

[Luz runs to her, but bounces off when her wing twitches. Beast Eda turns at the noise and growls, going in for the attack]

Luz:
[pulls out an activated light glyph] Eda, wait! It's me! It's me.

Beast Eda:
[closes her eyes, reopens them to reveal them being gold again] Luz? Oh no, oh no no no no no wh- what are you doing here?

Luz:
It's okay Eda, I'm here to save you.

[She activates a fire glyph on the chain keeping Eda in place, but the flame does nothing]

Beast Eda:
Your magic isn't strong enough for this. You need to leave! Now.

Luz:
But, but I can't! It's my fault you needed to save me. It's my fault you got captured.

Beast Eda:
No. Listen to me. I'm here because of my own actions. I went against Belos's law, and for a while I was able to get away with it. But, [sighs] well without magic, I can't do much. I don't regret anything. I lived freely and... I got to meet you.

Luz:
Eda...

Beast Eda:
But if you stay here, I won't be able to protect you. You need to leave. Now!

Luz:
But we're a family! Us weirdos have to stick together, remember?

[Eda sticks a claw into her hair, pulling out the key for the portal door. She activates it, making the door rise from the floor. It opens as she speaks, revealing the same path that Luz chased Owlbert down at the beginning of the summer]

Beast Eda:
You have a family already. Go back to them. And when you're home, use your fire magic to destroy the portal door. [places the key around Luz's neck] I don't know why Belos wants it, but we can't take any chances.

Luz:
[looks at Eda with tears in her eyes before tucking the key under her cloak and hugging her] I love you, Eda.

Beast Eda:
I love you too, kiddo.

[A siren blares as a door in the ceiling opens]

Beast Eda:
Luz, get away!

[Eda pushes Luz away as the chain around her neck glows blue and transforms into a cage. The ground beneath Eda begins to rise]
