WEBVTT
00:19.770 --> 00:21.040
The wind?
00:24.520 --> 00:25.800
Are you awake?
00:27.980 --> 00:30.780
I hailed us a Pegasus Carriage.
00:30.780 --> 00:31.780
Huh?
00:32.460 --> 00:35.160
Flying so high must've
been cold in your pajamas.
00:35.630 --> 00:37.270
We're almost there.
00:39.710 --> 00:41.910
There, can you see it?
00:52.160 --> 00:56.020
That's my atelier and
the school you'll be learning at.
02:28.560 --> 02:34.400
The School of the Grassland
02:32.000 --> 02:36.030
I planted Guard Briar seeds
around your house.
02:36.610 --> 02:40.420
They'll grow in no time
and act as a barrier.
02:40.820 --> 02:44.660
Your house was petrified
by an unknown spell,
02:45.540 --> 02:48.540
so it'll keep people
from getting too close to it.
02:54.460 --> 02:55.630
So...
02:57.330 --> 02:58.330
Coco?
03:03.530 --> 03:04.700
What's the matter?
03:05.560 --> 03:10.260
I promised my mom I wouldn't
leave her by herself.
03:10.260 --> 03:11.340
But I...
03:12.300 --> 03:13.350
Coco...
03:18.570 --> 03:22.420
Don't be hard on yourself.
You didn't know what you were doing.
03:35.300 --> 03:37.420
Here, let's wash your face.
03:37.900 --> 03:40.990
Let all your tears out, then look ahead.
03:43.610 --> 03:45.940
Because this is going to
be your new home starting today.
03:56.860 --> 03:59.170
Um, what is this?
03:59.170 --> 04:01.500
Hmm? Water, of course.
04:04.480 --> 04:08.790
Ah. I totally forgot!
You need a change of clothes.
04:05.210 --> 04:08.790
It feels too round and floaty
to be called water.
04:09.670 --> 04:10.670
Huh?
04:11.030 --> 04:13.670
How am I supposed to use this?
04:14.400 --> 04:15.810
Mister Qifrey?
04:18.350 --> 04:21.930
I'm scared of touching
magic I don't understand.
04:21.930 --> 04:23.890
There's nothing to be afraid of!
04:24.290 --> 04:26.890
It's not a difficult
kind of magic to handle.
04:29.480 --> 04:31.820
Want me to teach you?
04:35.020 --> 04:37.540
That's a Vapor Bubble.
04:37.910 --> 04:41.480
It's magic that pulls water
out of the moisture in the air.
04:41.840 --> 04:44.530
Here, hold out your hands.
04:45.650 --> 04:49.300
Tilt the lower tray,
and the water pours out.
04:49.790 --> 04:53.410
Wow, that's amazing. Thank you.
04:53.410 --> 04:54.920
Thank you!
04:54.920 --> 04:55.670
Huh?
04:55.670 --> 04:58.910
I love being told "Thank you."
04:58.910 --> 05:00.800
So thank you!
05:01.250 --> 05:04.440
Oh, um... I see.
05:04.440 --> 05:05.830
Thanks.
05:05.830 --> 05:08.600
Thank you for thanking me again!
05:08.600 --> 05:12.230
Thank you for thanking me,
and thank you again...
05:12.230 --> 05:14.480
Just ignore her if she's too much.
05:16.400 --> 05:18.900
She'll stop eventually if you
just don't respond.
05:19.360 --> 05:24.440
How mean, Richeh! I was just helping her.
05:26.500 --> 05:28.200
The pen and ink.
05:29.480 --> 05:31.610
Are you both witches?
05:31.610 --> 05:35.830
Just apprentices.
We're students of Master Qifrey.
05:35.830 --> 05:38.340
Wait, so you're not?
05:38.820 --> 05:42.320
I totally thought you were
a fellow student like us.
05:42.320 --> 05:45.150
Are we the same age?
Which atelier did you come from?
05:45.150 --> 05:46.850
Uh...
05:47.660 --> 05:50.720
I don't think I can call myself
a student just yet.
05:50.720 --> 05:54.630
I mean, yesterday was
the first time I ever drew a spell.
05:55.080 --> 05:57.360
But I'm going to live here as of today.
05:58.940 --> 05:59.960
What?
06:01.170 --> 06:02.170
Huh?
06:02.610 --> 06:05.860
Wait, so you're the one who did it?
06:06.150 --> 06:08.120
Did what?
06:15.920 --> 06:17.700
There's a rumor going around
06:18.970 --> 06:22.500
about an Outsider who used
forbidden magic...
06:22.500 --> 06:26.100
That they were allowed to become an
apprentice with their memories intact...
06:28.260 --> 06:29.270
Coco.
06:31.130 --> 06:32.420
Are you okay?
06:32.420 --> 06:33.850
Mr. Qifrey...
06:34.390 --> 06:37.400
Looks like you all introduced yourselves.
06:37.400 --> 06:40.210
Richeh and Tetia,
will you go study in your rooms
06:40.210 --> 06:42.100
after helping with the morning chores?
06:42.100 --> 06:43.520
Okay!
06:44.460 --> 06:47.660
Here are your new clothes.
This is what my students wear.
06:50.410 --> 06:53.620
Don't be afraid. I'll explain everything.
06:56.290 --> 06:57.940
Looks like it fits you perfectly.
07:00.460 --> 07:04.050
Now then, let us begin
the story of magic.
07:07.410 --> 07:12.110
Long ago, magic wasn't something special.
07:13.430 --> 07:17.940
All you needed was a combination of
known patterns and specially made ink.
07:23.710 --> 07:28.350
It was a familiar tool
that anyone could use.
07:30.160 --> 07:34.530
However, it sparked conflict
time and time again.
07:36.810 --> 07:38.980
When humans are given
the power to do anything,
07:38.980 --> 07:40.890
"anything" is what they will do.
07:41.560 --> 07:44.410
And so, many horrific spells were created.
07:49.060 --> 07:51.910
The few people who still had a conscience
07:51.910 --> 07:55.880
turned away from conflict
and unified as witches
07:55.880 --> 07:58.510
to take other people's memories of magic,
07:58.510 --> 08:02.830
entrusting the secret only to
disciples sworn to protect it.
08:03.950 --> 08:06.180
That was the Day of the Pact.
08:07.020 --> 08:09.650
Ever since then,
people have been made to believe
08:09.650 --> 08:12.130
that magic is a power only
a chosen few can wield.
08:12.570 --> 08:14.770
If the truth were to spread,
08:14.770 --> 08:17.410
the world would collapse
into lawlessness once again.
08:17.900 --> 08:21.430
Everyone's being careful
to keep the secret.
08:21.800 --> 08:23.920
That's why they started
talking about you.
08:24.260 --> 08:25.450
I'm sorry you had to hear that.
08:25.920 --> 08:29.170
No, I brought this on myself.
08:29.970 --> 08:33.180
Um, what's "forbidden magic"?
08:34.550 --> 08:36.840
Magic that was drawn
during the age of conflict
08:36.840 --> 08:39.340
and banned when the Day of the Pact came—
08:40.310 --> 08:42.310
magic for hurting others.
08:44.820 --> 08:46.810
Please teach me!
08:46.810 --> 08:48.940
Teach me all about the magic
that I'm not supposed to use!
08:49.200 --> 08:50.240
I want to know!
08:51.860 --> 08:55.640
I'll be too scared to do anything
if I don't know what it is.
08:57.850 --> 09:00.290
This is where I usually tell
my students not to rush things,
09:00.730 --> 09:02.750
but that's harder with you.
09:05.270 --> 09:06.430
Come with me.
09:11.450 --> 09:14.680
There are countless forbidden spells,
09:14.680 --> 09:17.780
but it's simple when you boil it down.
09:18.590 --> 09:20.830
Any spell cast directly upon
the human body
09:20.830 --> 09:22.920
is prohibited under all circumstances.
09:23.510 --> 09:26.840
This includes transformation,
age alteration,
09:26.840 --> 09:29.850
teleportation without
doors or conveyances,
09:30.580 --> 09:32.920
as well as the manipulation
of thoughts or emotion,
09:32.920 --> 09:35.410
the harming of others,
or even healing them.
09:36.170 --> 09:38.410
There is, however, a single exception.
09:39.070 --> 09:41.160
Erasing memories?
09:41.160 --> 09:42.580
Exactly.
09:44.840 --> 09:47.280
Most spells are cast on tools.
09:48.750 --> 09:50.850
Like carriages or lamps.
09:58.180 --> 10:01.520
Or windows like this one.
10:21.200 --> 10:22.690
A lake?!
10:23.660 --> 10:26.480
But we were surrounded
by hills just a minute ago.
10:27.040 --> 10:28.810
It's called a Windowway.
10:28.810 --> 10:31.530
It connects two round windows
that bear the same pattern.
10:32.840 --> 10:34.800
Can you see that building over there?
10:35.720 --> 10:37.020
That's the Tower of Tomes.
10:37.400 --> 10:41.340
To preserve knowledge,
all books related to magic
10:41.340 --> 10:44.060
are duplicated there
the moment they're written.
10:45.060 --> 10:46.680
The picture book...
10:47.160 --> 10:50.260
Let's go there right now!
I won't sleep until I find it!
10:50.260 --> 10:51.070
Hold your horses.
11:08.930 --> 11:10.750
That was the Librarians' Trial.
11:11.230 --> 11:14.490
The Tower of Tomes
is protected by four librarians,
11:14.490 --> 11:18.130
and only witches who overcome it
are allowed to enter.
11:18.910 --> 11:21.970
So you need to study
if you want to go inside.
11:23.060 --> 11:23.970
Coco.
11:24.590 --> 11:29.100
It made me happy earlier when you
expressed how eager you are to learn.
11:30.010 --> 11:32.110
It's natural to feel fear.
11:32.440 --> 11:33.460
But...
11:35.030 --> 11:37.860
The spells that are not forbidden
11:42.760 --> 11:45.770
are those that bring
happiness to all of us.
11:47.170 --> 11:50.630
So why not learn about
the gentler sort of spell?
11:51.750 --> 11:52.770
That's how I feel.
11:53.930 --> 11:55.070
What do you say?
11:56.210 --> 11:58.840
Yes. Of course, Master Qifrey.
12:02.920 --> 12:04.560
This'll be your room.
12:08.020 --> 12:09.890
Looks like Agott's not around.
12:09.890 --> 12:11.440
Who's Agott?
12:11.440 --> 12:13.310
Your roommate.
12:19.270 --> 12:21.930
The two of you will share a workspace.
12:21.930 --> 12:23.700
You'll have your own bedroom, though.
12:26.140 --> 12:29.990
Go down the stairs in the back.
Don't worry, the doors can be locked.
12:31.210 --> 12:33.080
You should get some rest.
12:33.480 --> 12:36.600
I have some things to take care of,
so call if you need anything.
12:47.540 --> 12:49.550
It's me, Qifrey.
12:50.110 --> 12:53.810
Thank you for allowing me
to take in Coco as my apprentice.
12:55.120 --> 12:59.860
Yes. No, nothing about the picture book.
12:59.860 --> 13:02.320
She's overwhelmed right now.
13:04.950 --> 13:07.880
So this is what a witch's room looks like?
13:09.330 --> 13:11.710
That's my side of the desk.
13:23.340 --> 13:25.970
Move so I can land.
13:25.970 --> 13:27.890
Oh, sorry.
13:38.660 --> 13:41.080
You're Agott, right? I'm Coco—
13:41.080 --> 13:42.090
I know who you are.
13:42.660 --> 13:44.720
You're the Outsider
everyone's talking about.
13:45.140 --> 13:48.140
I heard you'll be joining as a new peer.
13:49.330 --> 13:51.960
I'm sorry about your mother.
13:52.750 --> 13:54.830
Th-Thanks.
13:54.830 --> 13:56.790
Because of what you've done,
13:59.130 --> 14:01.800
she'll never return to being human.
14:03.300 --> 14:05.810
I came here to save her.
14:06.540 --> 14:07.800
By becoming a witch—
14:10.390 --> 14:13.540
Our whole lives, we've been
drawing Casting Seals
14:13.540 --> 14:15.090
until our fingertips turned black.
14:15.090 --> 14:17.550
We worked and worked
until we passed the tests,
14:17.550 --> 14:20.360
and were only then allowed to
become apprentices.
14:20.880 --> 14:23.260
You're an ordinary girl who knows nothing.
14:23.260 --> 14:26.620
There's no way an Outsider such as
yourself can become a witch.
14:29.930 --> 14:33.020
I... I've drawn spells already!
14:33.550 --> 14:35.250
I won't know until I try it!
14:35.250 --> 14:37.460
Then prove yourself.
14:37.460 --> 14:38.640
Your tests start tomorrow—
14:38.640 --> 14:40.840
Agott! Coco!
14:40.840 --> 14:42.920
Food is ready!
14:43.340 --> 14:45.040
Let's eat!
14:50.970 --> 14:52.570
I'm starving.
14:52.570 --> 14:57.160
Me, too! We're having
Coco's welcome party today!
14:57.160 --> 14:58.690
Lots of food.
15:06.720 --> 15:08.430
Same as usual.
15:09.250 --> 15:11.830
Master, what happened
to the welcome party?
15:12.120 --> 15:15.760
It was so last-minute.
We'll do it another time.
15:16.140 --> 15:17.340
Where's Agott?
15:17.340 --> 15:19.150
She said she's eating in her room.
15:19.800 --> 15:23.220
She should join us once in a while.
15:23.620 --> 15:25.870
Okay, let's eat.
15:26.340 --> 15:29.380
Would you do the honors, Coco?
15:29.380 --> 15:31.170
Huh? Uh, sure.
15:32.370 --> 15:33.960
Let's eat.
15:33.960 --> 15:35.600
Let's eat.
15:43.130 --> 15:44.380
It's so good.
15:44.380 --> 15:47.620
I know, right? We bake it ourselves.
15:48.000 --> 15:49.850
Master is a great chef.
15:49.850 --> 15:50.990
That's amazing.
15:51.510 --> 15:53.990
It's thanks to the locally grown wheat.
16:02.720 --> 16:05.770
We get great veggies around here.
16:06.340 --> 16:08.270
Thank you for the food.
16:33.340 --> 16:34.840
Mom...
16:44.310 --> 16:48.320
I need to take tests in order
to become an apprentice.
16:49.270 --> 16:54.490
But it doesn't go into detail
about what you need to do.
16:54.490 --> 16:56.100
Need to do about what?
16:58.490 --> 17:01.870
There are lots of things books
don't tell you when it comes to magic.
17:01.870 --> 17:05.400
You'll learn more
from doing than from reading.
17:05.850 --> 17:07.030
What are these?
17:07.350 --> 17:10.670
Your Components—
tools used to draw magic.
17:11.780 --> 17:13.780
Wow!
17:14.040 --> 17:16.620
They look so cool!
17:18.630 --> 17:21.410
The Ink Wand. A pen.
17:22.470 --> 17:25.670
I still feel a bit scared
touching this. But...
17:26.360 --> 17:29.520
Mom, I'm going to save you
no matter what it takes!
17:30.290 --> 17:32.930
Master Qifrey, I look
forward to our lessons.
17:32.930 --> 17:35.060
Okay, let's get started.
17:42.190 --> 17:45.260
Are you okay, Coco?
Shall we take a break?
17:46.090 --> 17:48.270
I-I'm fine.
17:49.680 --> 17:53.030
Okay, try explaining to me
what you learned.
17:53.030 --> 17:54.710
O-Okay.
17:55.200 --> 18:00.060
Um... A spell is composed
of three elements.
18:00.720 --> 18:02.840
The sigil is in the center.
18:02.840 --> 18:06.430
It's surrounded by lines
that are called signs.
18:06.430 --> 18:10.050
The outer circle that
completes it is called the ring.
18:10.050 --> 18:12.450
The types of sigil—fire,
18:13.610 --> 18:14.570
water,
18:15.260 --> 18:16.440
light,
18:17.460 --> 18:18.580
and wind.
18:18.580 --> 18:21.680
They determine what kind
of magic it becomes.
18:22.140 --> 18:25.350
The signs determine
what form the magic takes,
18:25.350 --> 18:27.940
as well as its size and direction.
18:28.770 --> 18:31.960
Lastly, when the outer ring is completed,
18:31.960 --> 18:35.180
that locks the seal in place
and activates the spell.
18:36.450 --> 18:39.970
I'm barely keeping up
just memorizing everything.
18:39.970 --> 18:41.700
But you were able to explain it!
18:43.960 --> 18:45.950
I'm going to try drawing one!
18:45.950 --> 18:48.020
I like it! That's the spirit.
19:01.370 --> 19:02.320
Huh?
19:04.230 --> 19:06.230
Don't throw it away.
19:07.230 --> 19:08.980
No! Please don't look at it!
19:08.980 --> 19:11.450
It's not something I can show you!
19:11.450 --> 19:15.480
It's sloppy, and the lines
are all wobbly and messy...
19:15.860 --> 19:19.100
Of course it is. You're just learning.
19:19.100 --> 19:22.370
But there's something else you
should pay attention to.
19:22.770 --> 19:25.750
Look right here.
See how your ring is not connected?
19:26.000 --> 19:28.790
A spell won't activate
unless it's a complete circle.
19:32.250 --> 19:35.780
It's natural to have unsteady hands when
you're learning to use a new tool.
19:35.780 --> 19:38.640
You're like a newborn
foal just learning to stand.
19:38.920 --> 19:42.550
You'll get used to it and be
running around freely in no time.
19:44.390 --> 19:47.910
Now, connect the lines
and activate the spell.
20:02.590 --> 20:05.250
I-I'm sorry! Very sorry!
It was an accident!
20:08.250 --> 20:11.250
Sorry! I'll dry it! I'll dry it off!
20:12.540 --> 20:14.360
Calm down, Coco!
20:12.540 --> 20:13.730
Has it dried?!
20:14.360 --> 20:16.400
Sorry, Agott. Are you okay?
20:15.850 --> 20:17.010
Not yet?!
20:18.470 --> 20:22.890
It's fine, Master.
I'm not bothered by it at all.
20:23.160 --> 20:26.460
But may I see the Casting Seal she drew?
20:26.460 --> 20:28.390
Huh? Sure.
20:29.440 --> 20:31.650
Ah, I found the problem.
20:36.140 --> 20:37.030
Look.
20:38.110 --> 20:40.550
This sign is longer than the rest.
20:40.550 --> 20:45.410
It amplified pressure in this direction
and caused the water to gush out.
20:45.760 --> 20:48.950
As always, your observation
is on point, Agott.
20:51.420 --> 20:53.670
I think I can leave her in your care.
20:53.670 --> 20:54.630
Huh?
20:59.880 --> 21:04.090
For the next two or three days,
I'll be out visiting the Great Hall.
21:04.090 --> 21:07.640
Please look after her
while I'm gone, Agott.
21:08.050 --> 21:09.920
Absolutely, Master.
21:11.020 --> 21:12.530
Wait!
21:12.530 --> 21:14.950
There's a lot you can learn
from your peers.
21:14.950 --> 21:17.680
Watch her closely and learn, Coco.
21:19.220 --> 21:21.430
M-Master...
21:25.270 --> 21:28.600
Um, I'm really sorry about that. I—
21:28.600 --> 21:30.510
You don't have to keep apologizing.
21:30.510 --> 21:32.420
I said I wasn't bothered by it, didn't I?
21:33.560 --> 21:35.290
Now then, Coco.
21:36.520 --> 21:39.990
Yesterday, I told you to prove yourself.
21:40.600 --> 21:43.720
No more cushy little lessons.
21:44.200 --> 21:46.330
Your tests start now.
21:47.140 --> 21:48.280
What?
23:35.410 --> 23:40.000
Episode 3:
23:35.410 --> 23:40.000
The Dadah Range Test
