At the Owl House, Lucia and Luz were getting ready for the ritual, while Eda went to talk with Lilith. Luz picked up a knife, knowing that there is no turning back. She stabbed her hand and handed the knife to Lucia. She did the same. The two let their blood fall into a bowl, black and red mixing together. Luz flipped the pages in the book and began to read what to do next.
"Alright, I need to do this carefully." Luz said.
Luz was very surprised to learn that Ouija boards are actually from the Savage Ages and actually worked. The longer she's here the more she begins to wonder if this is actually just Hell. She dipped the eye for it in the blood and the glass center began to get a dark red tint. She took it out and placed it on the board. Luz and Lucia put their hands on the eye, and they started moving the eye. They began to spell out a word. C-A-M-I-L-A N-O-C-E-D-A. As they did this, each letter they used began to glow bright fire orange. The second they reached the last letter, the eye began to glow with the letters and the glass center cracked, creating a large gust of wind coming from the board. The two were nearly flung back because of the sudden wind. The wind died down and they looked at the coffee table. Floating above the table, was a transparent person.
"Mom?" Luz asked.
The spirit floated over and landed on the ground.
"Hello, Mija." Camila said.
Luz hugged her mother's ghost and started crying. Camila ran a hand through Luz's hair, trying to comfort her.
"Mom?"
Camila looked behind her and saw Lucia.
"Lucia?"
Camila let go of Luz and walked over to the daughter she believed was dead. The two looked at each other for a minute before hugging.
"I'm sorry, Mami, I never should've said those things to you!" Lucia said, "I'm sorry I was such a problem!"
"Don't say that!" Camila said, "You are not a problem, you were just a kid! I am the one who was the problem."
"No!" Both girls shouted together.
"You are the best damn person ever!" Lucia said.
Luz looked at the ground.
"I wasn't able to save you." Luz said, "I'm sorry that I failed you."
"No, you didn't." Camila said, "I'm human, death is inevitable. You never could've done anything to help me."
"I could never have come here." Luz said.
"And then you would never have found your sister." Camila said, "I'm proud of you, both of you. You both have grown so much and become two wonderful young ladies."
Luz and Lucia hugged their mom. Feeling their eyes getting wet as tears fell down their cheeks.
"Never forget, I love both of you." Camila said, "And I'll never stop loving you. No matter if I'm here or not, I will always be with you."
The glowing began to die down and Camila's spirit faded. The two sisters sat on the ground, silently crying, but also feeling happy. They finally got the closure they needed. A weight has been lifted off their shoulders. The silence was taken when Luz got a call on her scroll.
"Hello?" Luz asked, wiping the tears away.
"Luz, it's Edric! Someone kidnapped, Amity and Emira!"
Luz felt her world shatter. She didn't even need to know who's responsible for it, she already knew who did it.
"I'll find them, don't worry." Luz said, looking and seeing the moon begin to rise.
Luz ended the call and began to move towards the door.
"Wait, I'm going with you." Lucia said.
"I won't-"
"Don't begin with me, we both know you have less than an hour to get this done, you need all the help you can get." Lucia said, "I'm not affected by the Blood Moon, which means I won't get Feral by it."
Luz hated that she was right, she didn't have time.
"Fine, follow me!"
The two ran out the door and headed to the castle.
