WEBVTT
00:00.440 --> 00:01.910
Oh, welcome!
00:00.540 --> 00:05.960
A Nightmare Stained in Black
00:01.910 --> 00:04.620
Here to pick up that order you placed?
00:04.620 --> 00:08.230
Yes, the Conjuring Ink
I asked for the other day...
00:08.230 --> 00:10.430
And there's a crack in my wand.
00:10.430 --> 00:11.950
Do you think you could fix it?
00:11.950 --> 00:14.380
That flash of light was so bright...
00:14.650 --> 00:17.520
There's no way Grandpa didn't see it.
00:18.380 --> 00:21.270
Maybe Mister Qifrey
knows something about it?
00:22.940 --> 00:25.970
Or could he be the reason?
00:34.280 --> 00:37.790
S-S-S-Sorry!
00:37.790 --> 00:41.040
Looks like that Grasping Wind seal
00:41.670 --> 00:44.590
was a bit too big to just
grab a mountain apple.
00:45.490 --> 00:46.560
Right.
00:46.560 --> 00:50.750
The first time, the seal was too small,
and it just made them wobble,
00:50.750 --> 00:53.250
so I thought I should make it stronger...
00:53.250 --> 00:56.460
How about angling the Sign of
Pulling so it makes a twist?
00:56.810 --> 00:59.770
See? You twist an apple
when you pick it, right?
00:59.770 --> 01:01.190
That's a good alteration.
01:01.190 --> 01:06.190
Changing up signs to suit your goal is
what makes spells infinitely adaptable.
01:08.890 --> 01:11.650
When something doesn't work,
figure out why you failed.
01:11.650 --> 01:14.310
And when you succeed,
ask, "Why did that work?"
01:14.310 --> 01:18.330
The purpose of repeating lessons
is trial and error!
01:18.330 --> 01:21.710
It's important not to just act
out of habit. Right, Master?
01:21.710 --> 01:23.460
Exactly right.
01:23.460 --> 01:26.760
You're an excellent teacher, Master Tetia.
01:28.050 --> 01:30.550
Master Tetia?!
01:31.070 --> 01:33.220
That's so sweet! I'm blushing!
01:33.220 --> 01:35.730
Do go on, now!
01:38.630 --> 01:41.760
Do you really have time
to be looking after others?
01:42.310 --> 01:44.780
If you're aware of your shortcomings,
01:44.780 --> 01:47.060
why not spend it on practice of your own?
01:51.190 --> 01:54.420
Okay, then! Show me how to do it!
01:54.420 --> 01:56.880
Hey, I wasn't telling you
to come over here!
01:56.880 --> 02:00.220
Let's go! Tetia Attack!
01:56.880 --> 02:00.220
I'm busy studying for my test,
so I don't have time to—
02:05.260 --> 02:10.050
So there are tests besides the Consent
of the Crown in the Dadah Range?
02:11.240 --> 02:12.160
Yes.
02:13.870 --> 02:16.480
Five of the stupid things
that don't matter.
02:16.480 --> 02:18.660
Like I need that garbage
to know how to draw...
02:19.280 --> 02:22.730
The point of the tests is to challenge
and learn about yourself.
02:23.050 --> 02:27.170
Whether or not they matter depends
on the attitude of the taker.
02:28.310 --> 02:34.100
Still, it's hard to enjoy things
you haven't chosen to take part in.
02:34.570 --> 02:38.120
The witches of old struggled
with that same problem.
02:38.120 --> 02:41.310
"Magic exists to make people happy.
02:41.310 --> 02:44.530
Making our apprentices suffer
would be missing the whole point."
02:44.530 --> 02:46.620
And so the Three Wise Ones thought it over
02:46.620 --> 02:49.460
and decided that the tests should
be adventures in the outside world
02:49.460 --> 02:51.960
that everyone would want to take.
02:55.280 --> 02:57.850
"Earn the permission to
become an apprentice."
02:57.850 --> 03:00.520
The first test, the Consent of the Crown.
03:01.220 --> 03:03.560
"Display your devotion and
walk beside your master."
03:03.560 --> 03:06.390
The second test,
the Sincerity of the Shield.
03:07.310 --> 03:09.900
"Prove your path worthy
and take up the key."
03:09.900 --> 03:12.710
The third test, the Query of the Qui Vive.
03:13.430 --> 03:15.790
"Grant a wish and stand alone."
03:15.790 --> 03:18.860
The fourth test,
the Goodwill of Her Grace.
03:19.480 --> 03:21.940
"Now, you become the teacher."
03:21.940 --> 03:24.800
The fifth test, the Words of the Wise.
03:25.350 --> 03:28.140
This is the Pentacle of Proving.
03:28.710 --> 03:34.570
With each step you take,
you're allowed to do more with your magic.
03:34.570 --> 03:37.450
If you pass the fourth test,
you become a full-fledged witch
03:37.450 --> 03:39.720
and no longer need tutelage.
03:39.720 --> 03:42.240
You're allowed to take on
the Tower of Tomes
03:42.240 --> 03:44.470
after passing the third test.
03:46.960 --> 03:49.850
The last test is for taking
your own apprentices,
03:49.850 --> 03:52.840
so you don't have to think about
that until after you graduate.
03:52.840 --> 03:54.230
Aw...
03:54.230 --> 03:58.290
But I'm always thinking about what
I'm gonna do after I graduate!
03:58.290 --> 04:01.750
Traveling to faraway places,
04:01.750 --> 04:04.510
helping all kinds of people with magic,
04:04.510 --> 04:08.720
hearing "thank you" from
people all over the world...
04:09.120 --> 04:13.250
One person says thank you,
and one person gets thanked!
04:13.570 --> 04:16.130
One little spell makes two people happy!
04:16.130 --> 04:18.380
What could be better than that?!
04:18.650 --> 04:20.130
Two birds with one stone!
04:20.130 --> 04:21.640
Two needs with one deed!
04:21.640 --> 04:24.290
Happiness comes in twos, like pigtails!
04:24.290 --> 04:25.390
Y'know?
04:25.390 --> 04:31.010
I can't wait to grow up and
design a cap with two points!
04:31.010 --> 04:33.060
Your hairstyle is actually symbolic?!
04:33.060 --> 04:37.000
You do get to choose your own cap
when you become a full-fledged witch.
04:37.400 --> 04:39.880
I hate tests.
04:40.780 --> 04:42.220
They're annoying.
04:42.220 --> 04:44.390
I hate people telling me what to do
04:44.390 --> 04:46.780
and making me draw spells
I don't want to draw.
04:47.170 --> 04:49.480
If you only draw the spells
you want to draw...
04:51.550 --> 04:55.040
you'll never learn anything new.
05:01.360 --> 05:02.900
Fine by me.
05:03.680 --> 05:08.220
If being an adult means having
to do things I don't want to do,
05:08.220 --> 05:10.250
I'll stay just as I am now.
05:11.140 --> 05:12.690
I'm leaving.
05:14.340 --> 05:15.640
Richeh...
05:15.640 --> 05:19.530
I refuse to stay as I am now.
05:19.530 --> 05:21.820
There are too many things I can't do yet.
05:22.310 --> 05:24.410
I want to take all the tests
as soon as possible.
05:24.880 --> 05:28.560
Then, someday, I'll become a
librarian in the Tower of Tomes.
05:29.290 --> 05:32.090
I wish I could grow up faster, even!
05:33.710 --> 05:38.770
Agott's family is descended from
an apprentice to the Three Wise Ones.
05:38.770 --> 05:40.800
They have librarians in every generation.
05:40.800 --> 05:44.050
I think it was... House Arklaum?
05:45.400 --> 05:48.570
So Agott is also trying to get
to the Tower of Tomes...
05:49.870 --> 05:51.000
What about you?
05:52.050 --> 05:54.790
What kind of witch do you want to be?
05:54.790 --> 05:58.320
I came from a different
starting point than you guys,
05:58.320 --> 06:00.800
so my path is pretty well laid out for me.
06:03.600 --> 06:07.700
For now, I just have to increase
the number of spells I can cast!
06:08.100 --> 06:11.990
Okay! I'll try that Grasping Wind
spell one more time!
06:11.990 --> 06:13.540
Yeah!
06:12.670 --> 06:14.160
By drawing spells, you remember them.
06:13.860 --> 06:15.850
Coco! Give me your hand!
06:14.160 --> 06:16.140
By remembering them,
you become able to use them.
06:15.850 --> 06:16.810
Okay!
06:16.140 --> 06:21.230
The power you acquire that
way will never betray you.
06:17.960 --> 06:20.390
One, two... upsy-daisy!
07:55.990 --> 07:58.170
What? Where is everyone?
07:58.600 --> 08:02.020
It's so dark... When did it become night?
08:02.460 --> 08:04.540
Coco? Coco!
08:09.010 --> 08:10.110
Coco.
08:12.630 --> 08:13.900
Mom!
08:14.200 --> 08:16.700
Mom! I'm sorry!
08:16.700 --> 08:19.540
It's all my fault.
I'm the one who did it.
08:19.540 --> 08:24.070
I didn't mean any harm, but I couldn't
give up on magic like you wanted...
08:27.570 --> 08:29.980
This is why I warned you, though.
08:31.270 --> 08:33.510
Normal people can't do magic.
08:35.380 --> 08:36.330
Mom...
08:36.330 --> 08:38.730
You ignorant Outsider.
08:39.200 --> 08:41.770
This is all your fault, Coco.
08:42.200 --> 08:44.420
Turning your mother to stone...
08:44.420 --> 08:47.040
Putting us all in danger...
08:47.040 --> 08:49.760
You're saying you didn't mean any of it?
08:51.400 --> 08:53.910
I don't want anything to do
with the Brimmed Caps.
08:53.910 --> 08:56.790
There are things that
some people just can't do.
08:56.790 --> 08:59.250
No exceptions can be made.
08:59.250 --> 09:01.850
It was kept a secret so
nothing like this would happen.
09:14.790 --> 09:18.180
This all happened
because you wanted magic.
09:18.180 --> 09:20.140
This is all your fault.
09:20.890 --> 09:23.910
And it'll be your fault
when the world falls apart!
09:49.790 --> 09:50.800
Master...
09:50.800 --> 09:52.200
You're still awake?
09:52.200 --> 09:54.050
I wanted more time to work, so...
09:54.050 --> 09:56.640
Stop that. Respect your limits.
09:56.640 --> 09:58.600
Yes, sir. I'll go back to bed.
10:06.860 --> 10:08.990
You're still awake, too?
10:09.430 --> 10:11.940
Yeah. I couldn't sleep.
10:17.910 --> 10:19.640
By drawing, you remember.
10:19.640 --> 10:21.390
By remembering, you become able.
10:21.950 --> 10:27.960
How much more will I have to draw
before I can save my mom?
10:36.680 --> 10:40.620
I've been waiting so long...
so very long...
10:43.890 --> 10:46.540
for this day to come...
10:47.650 --> 10:51.780
The Righteous Witches of Healingcraft,
who used magic to heal,
10:51.780 --> 10:53.660
fought the Three Wise Ones' edict
10:53.660 --> 10:57.360
forbidding spells cast on
the body to the very end.
10:58.270 --> 10:59.250
The Twinned Bottles spell—
10:59.250 --> 11:02.450
a spell that allowed them to
share medicine among them—
11:02.450 --> 11:05.370
was lost when their memories were taken.
11:05.990 --> 11:08.890
No matter how far away one vial might be,
11:08.890 --> 11:13.150
its contents could be shared through
the seal-inscribed medal within,
11:13.150 --> 11:16.380
and they would never run
out of what they needed.
11:17.010 --> 11:22.120
A delicate spell of healing,
lost since the Day of the Pact...
11:22.560 --> 11:25.890
Ironic that only the Brimmed Caps
can create it now.
11:26.350 --> 11:29.490
You're a beautiful spell,
but I'll have to dissect you.
11:29.490 --> 11:32.200
You're the only connection I have to them.
11:33.900 --> 11:36.030
I won't touch the Conjuring Ink yet.
11:36.480 --> 11:38.550
Its unknown power is too
dangerous to tamper with.
11:39.280 --> 11:44.540
All I need is the inscribed
medal hidden within.
11:44.540 --> 11:47.330
Can I remove it without being detected?
11:48.540 --> 11:50.980
The medal within is tied to them.
11:51.510 --> 11:54.840
If I were to place it in a Guidance Orb,
11:54.840 --> 11:58.240
its components, its owner,
where it was made...
11:58.240 --> 12:01.550
Every trace of its existence
will point me toward them.
12:02.470 --> 12:07.630
I'll have a more concrete indication
of their location than any faint hints.
12:15.460 --> 12:16.910
A lightning spell?!
12:16.910 --> 12:18.110
They caught on!
12:24.460 --> 12:25.790
Water? Not good...
12:36.930 --> 12:40.520
I let my guard down.
I can't use spells underwater...
13:12.150 --> 13:15.450
You're... the eyeball...
13:21.790 --> 13:24.530
W-Wait...
13:24.980 --> 13:26.280
Wait...
13:29.100 --> 13:32.850
I still have... to...
13:40.700 --> 13:43.710
Damn it. I won't give up.
13:44.610 --> 13:49.420
I will get back what was taken from me.
13:55.100 --> 13:57.800
After all the trouble to give it to her...
13:59.720 --> 14:01.380
What a waste.
14:12.930 --> 14:14.140
Synchronized yawns!
14:14.140 --> 14:15.830
You've been at it all day.
14:15.830 --> 14:17.540
Were you both up all night?
14:18.530 --> 14:19.490
I know!
14:19.490 --> 14:21.390
Night after night,
you transform into magic knights
14:21.390 --> 14:23.390
and fight off enemies with
your dazzling swordplay!
14:23.390 --> 14:25.800
Transformation spells are forbidden.
14:25.800 --> 14:29.990
Spending the day yawning is a sign
that you need to get more sleep.
14:30.570 --> 14:35.000
You've been up late practicing
these last few nights, right?
14:36.610 --> 14:39.630
Night's just when I feel
most inspired, I guess...
14:39.630 --> 14:41.630
You can't do that, Coco!
14:41.630 --> 14:44.640
I understand how you feel,
but it's not good to push yourself!
14:44.640 --> 14:46.940
Good magic demands good sleep.
14:46.940 --> 14:48.020
And food.
14:48.020 --> 14:50.120
Master Olly says it, too!
14:50.120 --> 14:53.890
If you don't get good sleep as a child,
you'll pay for it in your old age.
14:53.890 --> 14:55.140
Right?
14:55.140 --> 14:58.230
I'll make erbe tea to help you sleep!
14:58.230 --> 14:59.660
You want some, Master?
15:02.970 --> 15:04.150
Master?!
15:05.170 --> 15:07.160
Sorry, what were we talking about?
15:07.160 --> 15:08.650
I'm really sorry.
15:08.650 --> 15:11.020
I got so sleepy after just a few bites...
15:11.020 --> 15:12.750
I'll handle the tea.
15:14.530 --> 15:15.540
Hot!
15:19.410 --> 15:21.980
Master, are you sure you're all right?
15:21.980 --> 15:23.860
Yes, I'm fine.
15:25.760 --> 15:28.330
I'm still numb from the lightning.
15:29.050 --> 15:31.100
What a mess-up, huh?
15:31.100 --> 15:33.270
I ruined the last of our erbe tea.
15:33.270 --> 15:35.370
I'll go out and pick more leaves.
15:35.370 --> 15:38.310
Work on your Primers, everyone.
15:39.250 --> 15:41.620
I'll tidy up later,
so don't worry about it!
15:47.380 --> 15:49.470
Master's acting weird today!
15:49.470 --> 15:52.720
The effects of sleep deprivation
are not to be denied.
15:54.330 --> 15:56.750
I'll make him drink that erbe tea tonight.
15:56.230 --> 15:58.210
That's right. Agott...
15:56.750 --> 15:58.210
He needs to get some sleep!
15:58.210 --> 16:00.580
We'll get Master Olruggio to help, too.
15:58.210 --> 16:00.580
Can we talk for a minute?
16:05.810 --> 16:07.470
These are yours.
16:07.470 --> 16:09.690
My Sylph Shoes...
16:09.690 --> 16:12.220
I'm sorry it took so long to return them.
16:12.220 --> 16:15.580
It took a long time to
get the seal just right.
16:17.150 --> 16:19.520
Is this what you were
working on last night?
16:21.030 --> 16:24.230
I'm sure the seal's not as good
as what you guys could do...
16:24.230 --> 16:27.030
If it's hard to fly with them,
feel free to redraw them.
16:31.750 --> 16:33.400
What's this all about?
16:35.300 --> 16:37.170
Just what are you plotting?
16:38.640 --> 16:40.520
I can't stop wondering.
16:40.520 --> 16:43.880
After the Consent of the Crown...
the first test...
16:44.300 --> 16:49.670
You never told Master Qifrey
that I forced you into it.
16:50.150 --> 16:53.200
You could have told Mister Olruggio, too.
16:53.900 --> 16:55.210
But...
16:55.210 --> 16:59.420
You never said a word against me,
and you even fixed my Sylph Shoes.
17:00.410 --> 17:05.900
Why? I just don't understand
what goes through your head.
17:08.200 --> 17:09.530
That day...
17:10.020 --> 17:12.160
You did force me,
17:12.160 --> 17:15.620
and the test was scary,
and I felt afraid all on my own.
17:16.720 --> 17:19.940
I could have just sat there and
waited for someone to get me.
17:21.000 --> 17:22.140
But...
17:23.720 --> 17:26.770
That day, as I stood at the
base of the Dadah Range,
17:26.770 --> 17:29.550
it was me who decided to try it.
17:30.150 --> 17:35.550
I'm the one who wanted to prove that
it was okay, and that I could do it.
17:36.100 --> 17:38.870
I wanted to overcome
the trial with my own magic
17:38.870 --> 17:41.010
and feel like things
weren't totally hopeless.
17:43.140 --> 17:44.690
Because, otherwise...
17:49.270 --> 17:51.240
What are you saying, then?
17:51.240 --> 17:54.630
I'm the only one who's been
dwelling on it all this time?
17:54.630 --> 17:56.040
That's...
17:58.520 --> 17:59.520
Coco!
18:20.480 --> 18:23.470
Good, the feeling's come back.
18:24.910 --> 18:26.750
I wonder if they noticed
something was wrong.
18:26.750 --> 18:29.150
They're smart children, so maybe they did.
18:29.590 --> 18:31.270
If this gets out, it's over.
18:31.270 --> 18:33.650
I have to keep the secret.
18:34.100 --> 18:36.630
You won't tell anyone, right, Puffpuff?
18:37.910 --> 18:40.120
I guess you don't like that name.
18:42.370 --> 18:46.620
I thought it was cute, though... Puffpuff.
18:46.620 --> 18:47.880
So that's a no, huh?
18:48.630 --> 18:50.130
Master!
19:00.470 --> 19:02.910
You scared me, Agott!
19:02.910 --> 19:04.820
You were going so fast!
19:04.820 --> 19:09.150
The signs are too long,
so the Casting Seal is off-balance!
19:09.150 --> 19:11.570
Really? I'd love to have a look at it.
19:11.570 --> 19:13.930
No time for that! This is an emergency!
19:13.930 --> 19:15.130
It's Coco!
19:19.390 --> 19:21.240
I'll take her to the hospital in Kalhn.
19:21.240 --> 19:23.480
Sure. I'll watch the atelier.
19:23.480 --> 19:24.480
Thanks.
19:24.480 --> 19:27.720
If any of you need anything, talk to Olly.
19:40.950 --> 19:43.720
Hang in there.
We're almost at the hospital.
19:45.160 --> 19:47.280
The fever's getting worse.
19:47.280 --> 19:49.020
She needs to see a doctor soon!
19:56.620 --> 19:57.840
Okay, I'm next!
19:57.840 --> 19:58.680
You better get it right!
19:58.680 --> 20:00.120
Okay! Here I go!
20:01.070 --> 20:03.720
I've got you... There!
20:06.710 --> 20:08.440
You're supposed to catch it!
20:08.970 --> 20:10.790
Huh? Tartah, you're going already?
20:11.200 --> 20:14.140
Sorry, it's time for the ferry.
20:14.140 --> 20:17.300
Oh, yeah. You live on that sandbar, right?
20:17.730 --> 20:19.030
That's weird.
20:19.030 --> 20:22.800
If you're from a witch family,
why don't you just fly home?
20:22.800 --> 20:23.940
Yeah.
20:25.420 --> 20:28.810
There are rules to these things!
20:29.110 --> 20:30.240
Lame.
20:30.240 --> 20:31.670
Okay! See you tomorrow!
20:31.670 --> 20:33.170
Later!
20:37.020 --> 20:40.160
People who don't know anything
sure love to mouth off.
20:42.000 --> 20:43.570
I would love to...
20:48.190 --> 20:50.810
Huh? Mister Qifrey?
20:53.460 --> 20:54.430
What are you doing he—
20:54.430 --> 20:56.950
Tartah, the hospital
is this way, isn't it?
20:57.350 --> 20:59.340
I don't know this area well.
20:59.930 --> 21:02.150
Oh, you want the hospital?
21:02.150 --> 21:04.380
This way. I know a shortcut.
21:04.740 --> 21:05.740
Thanks.
21:24.980 --> 21:26.080
Look after her.
21:26.080 --> 21:28.150
Yes, we will.
21:28.150 --> 21:29.870
Please wait.
21:33.240 --> 21:35.290
I hope she'll be all right.
21:35.990 --> 21:37.510
Thank you, Tartah.
21:37.960 --> 21:39.930
I'm so glad you knew the way.
21:40.360 --> 21:42.200
It's not that big a deal.
21:42.200 --> 21:43.890
No, it's quite impressive.
21:44.210 --> 21:46.890
You seem to be an observant person.
21:47.270 --> 21:49.750
I suppose you must look
at things very carefully.
21:53.170 --> 21:55.900
Hey, Mister Qifrey...
21:56.400 --> 22:00.270
There's a question I wanted to ask you.
23:35.410 --> 23:40.080
Episode 10:
23:35.410 --> 23:40.080
A Promise in Silver
