Owl House Season1 Episode 11 – Sense and Insensitivity
Another good morning in the Boiling Isles and the mischievous trio have Eda's Human Collectibles stand in the market but once again business is slow for them as usual even though there are a lot customers. King holds up a tray of mostly inedible human things.
King: Partake of my free snack samples! Take them; I demand it as your ruler, the King of Demons!
Several people pass but none even look at him. He throws the tray on the ground.
King: Why isn't anyone paying attention to me? I'm their rightful overlord. Intellectually and such.
Eda: Yeah...hey! She grabs a passerby by the cowl, sniffs. It reeks more of nerd than money today.
Luke: Eda! King!
Luke excitedly appears by the table as Eda releases the passerby.
Luke: You will not believe what's going on! He points over to a banner reading "Book Fair". It's a book fair! Where books come to life!
Today, the market is filled with a bunch of stands and writers selling books.
King: A fair without rides?
A boy comes and shoves a book in King's face.
Boy: Who needs rides when this can take you anywhere?
Annoyed by this, King throws a strip of bacon on the boy's head. A winged demon flies by and picks him up. The boy screams.
Eda: A, ew. She grabs and throws a Book on the ground. B, I'm bored. C, I feel like pickpocketing some dork while they browse.
Luke: And with that, Eda walks off. Your loss, Owl Lady. He kneels to King. Looks like it's just me and you King. I'll let you ride in my Hoodie if you give this fair a chance.
This offer excites King enough to want to come.
Luke is walking through the book fair with King riding his hood. He looks around to see multiple stands and demons with books around him.
Luke: This book fair's got everything! A scene-making workshop, meet and greets, and…what's that? Luke reads the banner. A writing competition!?
Behind the table underneath the banner, signing books were a man with a Mohawk and sunglasses and a lizard man wearing a librarian's outfit.
Luke: Cool! I've always wanted to be a writer.
King: Writer? You? I thought you wanted to be a sword-fighting witch?
Luke: Of course, I wanna be a sword fighter and a witch. But where I'm from that's pretty much…impossible.
King: Considering those fighting moves you usually pull off I think you're better off as some sort of blood thirsty fighter than a write.
Luke: Well, sure karate is fun, but I got into it for the sake of defending myself and others, especially after a certain…incident. Luke's eyes fill with a tinge of fear but he quickly shakes it off. But aside from that, it isn't really what I wanted to do for my future. And like I said, becoming a swordfighter or a witch for that matter was pretty much a no-go. So, my runner up dream was to be a writer. He pulls a cute picture of him when he was 7, wearing sunglasses and striking a cool pose. I've had this "about the author" picture since I was 7 years old. I know my good angle. And today's the day I get to finally use it! I'm gonna enter the competition.
Bo runs past Luke, accidentally bumping him,
King: Ugh! What are these basement dwellers doing out in natural sunlight?
Tiny Nose came in with her own book, annoyed by King's statement.
Tiny Nose: Um! We're in line for Jon De Plume, most famous writer on the Boiling Isles, famed author of the Realm Warriors series! Jon signs Bo's book. I'm gonna have him read my story... and marry me.
Jon continues signing more books. A demon holds out his baby.
Man: Jon, will you sign my child?
Jon: I'll sign anything!
He laughs evilly and King becomes intrigued with Jon's popularity and how the people love him so much it's almost as though he's, their king.
King: Such power. Such command he holds over the mindless masses. I must have the same! Luke the human! I too shall enter the competition.
Luke: You? You wanna help? Luke chuckles. Knowing you I bet it's because you want pure fame and the power that comes with. But I guess I could use a writing partner. We could work together. We're best buds, so we'll make the best team!
King: Team! Yes! Luke begins walking away. My name goes first on the cover.
Owl House Intro Music
As the portal gate opens and the camera zooms in on it. Luke opens his eyes to see his falling down, causing him to freak out before something zoomed past and caught him. Luke saw he was saved by Eda along with King, who smirked at the human boy as they flew to her house on her Palisman staff with Luke raising his fist in excitement.
The door where Hooty was opened as Luke steps outside now wearing goggles, twirling his Rebellion sword and struck a pose, aiming his Glyph Gun at the screen. Eda came out with her staff, sharing a grin with Luke. King popped up in front of them in a pose.
A Boiling Isle mural appears, three windows flipping to briefly reveal Gus, Willow, and Amity striking their own poses before burning away to show King commanding an army of stuffed toys, which all fall on him.
Luke rode on Eda's staff like a surfboard, zooming past Bonesborough, flying past Tinella Nosa, sharing a high-five with Gus, Willow being beside him with a plan releasing vines and evading guards that chase him down. Eda and King join in on the fun and they have blast taking to the skies…until they hang on for dear life as a massive monstrous worm-like monster, mouth wide open, lunges at them as they scream in horror.
Then the scene changes back to the Owl House, where it's night-time, and stars twinkle in the sky as the trio are on the roof and looking up into the sky, Eda holding her staff beside her, Luke holding Rebellion downward and King riding his shoulder. Luke opens a hand, sending a ball of light floating into the sky where it bursts to release a blinding flash.
The title card appears:
Owl House
(Timeskip)
Eda looks around the book fair for anything for interest but all she spots are boring books until one look in a mirror tells her, her curse is slowly getting worse. She then overhears Lilith speak with a merchant about a map to the Bloom of Eternal Youth which she plans on retrieving for Emperor Belos. Annoyed by her sister's comment about her becoming frail, Eda convinces the merchant to hand over the same map to her after Lilith leaves, intent on acquiring the Bloom for herself to become younger.
At the Owl House, Luke and King were in the former's room, getting ready to write their story. Luke puts down a large corkboard, his hoodie and goggles hung up.
Luke: Alright little buddy, let's write down some ideas that we want to see in the story.
King: I can write anything?
Luke: Yeah! He hands him notecards and a crayon. It's called brainstorming, every idea is a good idea.
Luke and King have multiple notecards laid in front of them, writing down idea.
King: Done!
He pins up paper that says "VIOLENCE".
Luke: Violence. I agree that our book definitely needs that…but is that all?
King writes on another paper and it says "BLOOD :)".
Luke: Ok, good but a story should have more than just blood and violence. Here, let me show you.
A couple minutes later the corkboard is full of ideas written by Luke and finishes pinning up the last few, presenting them to King.
Luke: GOOD, EVIL, ADVENTURE, TRAGEDY, KINGDOMS, DARKNESS, LOVE, HATE, PASSION, ANGER, MAGIC, SWORD FIGHTING. All this stuff should make a pretty awesome story. The most important element of the story is a main protagonist. And of course, our main character will be, drumroll please…Luzure! He holds up a card with a drawing of himself dressed similarly to Azure. King deadpans to see Luke putting himself in the story. Yeah, I know, it's a little cliché to insert yourself in a story, but some of the best stories have these kinds of cliches.
He pins his character card to the board. King pins a stick figure drawing of himself, next to it.
King: And my main character is the King... err... the Ruler of Demons! With this totally original, all-star cast, victory will be ours!
Luke puts a typewriter (with a mouth) onto a desk and sits behind it.
Luke: Don't get cocky pal. That was only half in our battle to make a book. Next part is actually writing it.
(Montage)
For the next couple of hours, Luke and King were working hard in writing the perfect story.
King stares at the corkboard, now with "ACT 1", "ACT 2", and "ACT 3" on larger notecards in the middle. Luke puts a giant piece of paper over the acts of a drawing of Luzure and Ruler standing in front of an explosion. King and Luke high-five.
Next, Luke is writing on a chalkboard, brainstorming how the acts should go, some of which King approve.
Luke and King are now figuring out the "STORY STRUCTURE", which is written on a chalkboard with a circle on it, a line cutting it in half, with the numbers 1-8 on it. King gestures to it several times. Luke draws a scary face on the circle. They both grin.
(End of Montage)
Luke and King have spent hours on writing their story, ideas clashing every now and then which cause them to get into a few arguments, but they manage to find a compromise and make use out of both their idea. The floor is littered with paper, mostly scribbled in red. Luke is typing and King is pacing while reading. A banner above them reads "Luzure's Awakening".
King: "Luzure cried tears of heartbreak as he stood over the body of the princess, a traitor to her own kingdom that he was forced to vanquish to save his home. Though it was a heavy price, sacrificing the one he loved most to save the masses." King rolls his hand, gazing to Luke. Ehh…I like it, but I can't help but feel it's missing something.
Luke: I see what you're saying. But I think it's at least better than the idea of Ruler destroying everything in sight. You'd be surprised how popular a story is with a little romantic tension plus a dead lover.
King: Hey, there's more to life than shipping.
Luke: King, do not insult shipping in my presence!
King: King flinches a little. Whoa, sorry. Touchy subject. You just don't seem to be the kind of human who's into romance.
Luke: Admittedly I'm not that into romance, nor am I really interested in having a girlfriend. But romance and shipping make a story in a book or film much more interesting. It creates a good side story, and it helps that story grow into fandom.
Eda: Apprentice! Living room!
Luke: I'll be back, we'll figure this out, okay writing buddy?
Luke proceeds to walk out, leaving King alone. Alone. And with no one to stop him from what he's about to do.
King: My turn to write!
Luke meets up with Eda in the living room wearing her clock and look at the map.
Luke: Hey! Eda closes the map and Luke has his hands in his pockets. What's up, boss lady?
Eda: I am popping out for a few days to an undisclosed place to do undisclosed things. You're in charge.
Luke: Okay, cool.
Eda: No questions!
Luke: Okay.
Eda: I said no questions!
Eda closes her hood, goes out the door and magically slams it shut. Luke shrugs and heads back to him room to finish his story.
Luke opens the door to his room.
Luke: Well, King, it's just you and me for a wh-SWEET LORD!
In the minute he's been gone, King has transformed the room. Drawings of King and screaming people are on the corkboard. Luke's "Luzure's Awakening" script is now in the trash. King is typing peacefully, the title on their banner renamed "Ruler's Reach".
King: Hey, hey Luke, great news!
Luke: King! What the hell did you do!?
King: I just made a few tiny edits and this baby is humming!
Luke: Tiny edits!? You call all this tiny!? Luke picks up the paper of his main character and shows it to be crossed out in red. Luzure dies?! YOU KILLED THE MAIN CHARACTER!
King: I know, right! What a twist! Like you said, a dead character makes a story more popular!
Luke pinches his nose, trying to not get mad.
Luke: King, I know you're trying to pitch in, but killing off the main character in the possible first book!? You're crossing a line, man!
King: Yeah, into greatness. Don't you want us to win?
Luke is profoundly hurt and angered by King's lack of empathy.
Luke: Are you so obsessed with winning that you'd waste all our hard work together and toss out my ideas like they're garbage! How could you betray me like this!? You know what, forget it! I'm not taking part in this! If you want to win this way, then you can submit the story on your own!
Luke leaves the room, masking his sadness.
King: What? The door closes. Bah! What does he know?
Unsurprisingly, the typewriter can speak and voices its disagreement.
Typewriter: What the heck, man? Learn to collaborate.
King: Hush, you! I'll prove to both of you my story is superior.
(Timeskip)
King was going around town with edited book in hand, trying to get someone to read it only to be ignored and kicked out. The only one however who read it was the lizard man in the Book Fair, his name being Pinet. He looks at the script and becoming intrigued by it after reading it all within minutes, King takes the credit for writing it on his own. In the pub, Pinet makes King an offer, together they will publish the book and he will make King a star to which the self-proclaimed King of Demons accepts. He signs an ominous contract, making the deal official.
The book gets forged and is titled "Ruler's Reach", multiple copies are made, and they're published. Everyone loves the book and King becomes insanely popular as a result, even more popular than John De Plume. Even Tiny Nose has become a huge fan of King's.
In a forest Eda follows her map to the Bloom of Eternal Youth and has an encounter with Lilith who looked worse for wear in her search for the flower. After a little sibling argument, the two women race for the bloom.
Back in his room, Luke is writing on the typewriter.
King: Hey, Luke!
Luke looks up and glares at King who is casually stood by the door wearing his brown coat, lime green scarf and red sunglasses.
King: Guess who won the writing competition and became a blockbuster writer superstar?
He slides into the room while Luke resumes typing, ignoring King. You're right, it's me! Me! Do you wanna touch my scarf? A fan crocheted it out of their own hair! It smells so bad!
Luke continues typing, trying to hide his annoyance over King for having the nerve to act so casual towards him after what he did.
King: My publisher is throwing a huge party for my book, "Ruler's Reach". He puts a red envelope on the table. And I…uh…I'd like for you to be there
Luke just tosses the invitation off and it lands right in front of King who's hurt by this act as Luke continues typing. He masks it with defiance.
King: Alright, fine! Be that way, I guess.
King leaves and Luke stops typing, looking up and sighing
Typewriter: Dude, you don't need him. You know what he did.
Luke: Yeah…but I can't be mad at the little guy forever.
He picks up the invitation and opens it. Inside is a golden paper that says "MEET THE AUTHOR TONIGHT ONLY BONESBOROUGH LIBRARY". A picture of King in a blue sweater is in the middle.
At the Bonesborough library at night-time, people are in an extensive line. Inside, King and Piniet are sitting at a table, signing autographs for fans lined up in front of them.
Fan: Your fans are dying to know when "Ruler's Reach 2" comes out!
King: That's between me and my publisher, right, Piniet?
Piniet: Yes. Ooh, pardon me, I need a few moments of King's time.
Piniet walks off and King looks back at his fans, throwing a peace sign, making them scream.
King and Piniet walk to the aisle in front of the romance section.
King: Where's Jon De Plume at? I wanted to compare sunglasses.
Piniet: Oh, he's taking a break to finish his latest masterpiece. Fame can really box you in, you know? Uh…speaking of, how's your second book coming along?
King: Coming along? Or finished! King pulls out a manuscript. Bam! Haha! "Ruler's Reach 2"—now with more swears!
Piniet: Ahhh! Splendid! Piniet reads the book in seconds and laughs when he finishes. Oh, you cad! Not only are you a great writer, but a practical joker as well!
King: That's true—wait, what?
Piniet: Oh, this is truly awful! Looking forward to the real draft.
He hands the manuscript back and walks away, leaving King shocked to hear his work was just insulted.
King: Truly awful? But I'm a best-selling writer. How?
King spots Luke entering the library (his hoodie and goggles back on), looking generally disinterested with his hands in his pockets. King remembers most of his story was based on what he wrote together with Luke. Without his ideas clashing with King's whatever he writes on his own isn't that good.
King: Luke! I can't write without him! King runs up to Luke who swallows his earlier anger. Luke, buddy! I'm so glad you could make it!
Luke: Hey King, although I'm still mad at what you did, I don't want to be angry at your success. You're my friend. So, congratulations.
King: Great to hear, 'cause I really need your help with my next book!
Luke: What? My help?
King: Apparently, I can't write my daring works of genius without rebelling against your gushy fantasy fighting slop!
Luke blushes in anger from the insult combined with the request as King held out a pen.
Luke: Excuse me?! Slop!?
King: We make a great team! So, here's a pen. Writey writey, clock's a-tickin'!
Luke takes the pen and in an act of anger he drops the pen, having had enough with King's selfishness.
Luke: Are you kidding me!? Do you seriously think I'd right for you after you stabbed me in the back, threw my ideas in the trash and insulted them just now!?
King: Hey! What the heck?
Luke: You know what King…you really are a demon. King gasps, hurt by what Luke said. Congratulations on your hard-earned success. I hope it was worth throwing away our friendship.
King's eyes shrink from those words as Luke takes his leave, pulling his hood up. He looks at his script in a combination of panic and remorse.
King: What am I gonna do? I can't write without him!
Unbeknownst to them both, Piniet had secretly listened in on their argument, now knowing that King was just a co-writer and the true genius behind actions he read in his book was Luke.
(Timeskip)
Eda and Lilith were racing to the Bloom of Eternal Youth only for Lilith to get caught by a crab monster. To her surprise Eda saves her, showing while they're on rocky turns and opposing forces, she still cares for and loves her sister which she expresses, touching Lilith's heart. Though, the sisterly moment is ruined when the bloom is found and Eda proceeds to snatch it. But to the shock of the Clawthorne Sister it dissipates, the bloom was a fake. A shadowy figure rises from the pillar and releases a maniacal laughter, it doesn't take a detective for the sisters to realize they've been scammed and duped.
Back in the library, Luke is making his way towards the exit. He sees one of the many posters of King around the building.
Luke: They got his good angle.
A shadow falls over and he looks up to see two large reptilian-like guards in front of him.
Luke: Uh…can I help you fine gentlemen?
The guards step aside to reveal Piniet wearing a sinister expression.
Piniet: Perhaps. I hear you're an aspiring writer.
Luke: Luke steps back nervously. Uh…
The stands in the theatre are packed with a lot of people, all holding books and rooting for King. Hanging in the centre of the theatre is a towering banner for Ruler's Reach 2.
Crowd: King! King! King!
Boy: I can't wait for the sequel!
Amelia: If it's disappointing in any way, I will spend every day of my life trashing it!
King is looking at the audience nervously from behind a curtain, having heard what Amelia said. He's in a terrible situation that's pretty much his own fault. Without a good book he has nothing to present to the crowd, nothing to maintain his popularity and after what he did to Luke there's no way he'll get help. Piniet casually lies back in a corner.
King: Oh boy. He paces. Oh, man, Aw jeez. Hemming. Hawing. He walks over to Piniet. Piniet, I gotta come clean. We can't announce book two. I can't write without... without...
Piniet: Without your writing partner?
King looks up in shock, Piniet smirks evilly as he reveals he knows the truth.
He and King enter a dressing room. To King's horror Luke is inside, in a translucent purple box, unable to escape.
Luke: King!
King: Luke!
King runs over, placing paws against the cube.
Luke: That lizard jerk trapped me in this shrinking box to force me to write his dumb story!
Piniet tightens his fist. The box shrinks and hits Luke in the head. He shouts and falls.
Luke: Get out of here man! I can't get my blade to work in this box! There's some magic that's stopping it from working!
King: King glares at Piniet. What are you doing with him? Let him go!
Piniet: You wrote "Ruler's Reach" together. So, if you don't want him crushed, you'll write together again.
Luke and King both give him angered looks which Piniet shrugs off.
Piniet: Oh, don't give me that look. Some of the best books were written in literal crunch time.
The box shrinks again and Luke yelps, struggling to find space now.
Luke: Dude, that's a toxic mentality that ruins a writer's craftsmanship! Do something, King!
King growls, marching over to Piniet.
King: Set him free, now!
Piniet: Not until I get my best-seller. You'll recall you are under contract.
Piniet pulls the contract out of his jacket. The paper glows and King floats as a hole opens in the box which King is flung through, landing by Luke. Piniet drops a paper and a pen into the box.
Piniet: Make your deadline, or you'll never be able to hold a pen again. Just like...
Piniet holds up Jon De Plume, now shrunk into a cube.
Jon De Plume: Help me!
King: No!
Piniet opens a briefcase, in which are dozens of other cubed authors who are screaming for help much to the horror of Luke and King. Piniet puts Jon De Plume into an empty slot and closes the briefcase.
Piniet: I'll leave you to it. He takes his leave. Looking forward to your next volume!
The door is closes, leaving Luke and King all alone and the box shrinks again. King grabs the papers and pen in panic.
Luke: Oh, crap! We're in a real tight situation!
King: We're not getting out of here until we write a book, and that'll take forever! We're cube meat!
King holds his head, frustrated and scared. Luke takes something out of his bag.
Luke: Well, I have my story.
He presents his script: Luzure's Awakening. But King stubbornly pushes it away.
King: But that script just isn't bloodthirsty enough! I can't put my name on that, it's not my work!
Luke is getting increasingly furious, even now King refuses to collaborate.
Luke: King, that's why we're in here you little idiot! It was YOUR WORK that got us in this mess! And that's because you can't compromise! He turns around, purposely bumping King. All I wanted was to write an awesome story with my best friend! But you threw that all in my face and shut me out, like everyone else did back in my world!
Seeing how important this was to Luke and that he just wanted to have fun with him, King turns his head remorseful of his behaviour for the past couple days.
King: Luke, you're living your dream. You're becoming the ultimate witch warrior and going on epic adventures. But this celebrity is as close as I'll ever get to my dream. It all went to my head, and I hurt you. I'm sorry.
Luke turns back with a forgiving smile.
Luke: Hey, little buddy. Being with you is one of my favourite parts of this dream as tyrannical as you are.
The box shrunk down to the size of mini-fridge cardboard box; they're running out of time. They share determined looks.
Luke: I have a plan. But we need to work together this time.
King: Just tell me what to do, boss!
(Timeskip)
Back in the forest, the shadowy figure is revealed to be the merchant who gave Eda and Lilith the map, revealing the bloom to truly be fake to lure them here to be eaten by him. But to his dismay Eda and Lilith are amused instead of scared by this scam, sharing a sisterly moment as the judge and laugh at the merchant. His comments on how scared they should be prompts the Clawthorne Sisters to step up and proceed to give the beating of a lifetime much to his horror as he realizes scamming the Owl Lady and the Head Witch of the Emperor's Coven was a terrible mistake.
In the covention hall, Piniet is stacking the cubed authors into a tower with his guards and the tower collapses.
Piniet: Aw, dang.
King: Hey Piniet! We're done!
The door to the dressing room opens and Piniet comes in to see the box is now so small King has to be under Luke's legs, which are bent in order to fit. Both are in quite an awkward and tight situation.
Piniet: Faster than I expected!
King: That's the miracle of teamwork!
A hole opens in the top of the box and Luke holds up his manuscript: "Ruler's Reach: Luzure's Awakening".
Piniet: "Ruler's Reach: Luzure's Awakening". Interesting Title.
Piniet takes it and flips through part of it, slightly impressed with their work.
Piniet: Quite different and less bloodthirsty from your last story but not bad. The action is quite impressive.
King: If you think it's good so far, skip to the final, you'll find it enlightening.
Intrigued by this, Piniet keeps reading. Luke and King prepare to move. Piniet gets to the last page.
Piniet: What is this all about?
He flips it around to reveal a LIGHT Glyph drawn on the last page.
Luke: That my friend…is a deadly spell. ACTIVATING LIGHT SPELL!
Luke reaches through the hole in the box and activates the glyph. The manuscript catches fire and turns into a blinding ball of light that bursts, blinding Piniet and making him stumble back as he cries out in pain, rubbing his eyes.
Luke: King! Now!
King's spots his contract hanging out of Piniet's pocket.
King: Pretentious scarf, go!
King uses the scarf as a lasso, ensnaring Piniet and pulling him towards them, trapping him agains the box. Luke grabs the contract and rips it in half, causing their box to explode. Luke and King are free
Piniet: I made you a star, and this is how you repay me?
King: No, this is!
King opens Piniet's briefcase. The cubed authors jump out and attack Piniet, screaming in revenge as Luke runs past, carrying King. The two reptilian guards emerge from the door, blocking their exit. Luke leapt up with King on his back and he activates two Light Glyph's, smashing them into the reptiles and creating a double light blast that sends them flying and crashing out the door, getting rendered unconscious. Piniet frees himself from the cubed authors and is very furious as he stomps towards them both.
Piniet: You are making this harder than it needs to be! And believe me, I am being very patient! But let's...
Piniet pulls a pen from his jacket. He pops the cap off and presses a button. The nib of the pen extends into a large two headed battle axe, which he raises above his head.
Piniet: ...Cut to the finish.
Luke: My thoughts exactly pendejo!
Luke brings out Rebellion and the blade extends. As King hides behind Luke, the human boy gets into a battle stance. Piniet brings down his axe but Luke blocks with his blade. He pushes him off and Piniet swings his axe a couple time, prompting Luke to dodge, duck and deflect the swings. He and the lizard demon lock blades. Luke kicks Piniet back before summoning one of his Glyph Guns to charge and fire at Piniet. The lizard man blocks a couple shots but the distraction allows Luke to deliver a slash that sends his axe sticking to a wall and the Luke follows up with a roundhouse kick, sending Piniet crashing into a side wall.
Luke: Let's get the hell out of here!
King: Right behind you!
Luke fires a couple shots at the window, shattering it and he jumps onto the ledge but not before King takes off his outfit as Piniet gets up. They both grin at the corrupt publisher.
King: Hey, Piniet! I quit!
He tosses the outfit and sunglasses at Piniet and Luke gives a two fingered salute.
Luke: So long loser!
Luke jumps off the window ledge and Piniet runs over, watching Luke jump down the building and swinging off a tree branch before running off, angrily shaking his fist at them. Behind him, the cubed authors make their escape, celebrating over their freedom.
Piniet: GET BACK HERE! I SWEAR, I WILL HUNT YOU BOTH DOWN FOR AS LONG AS I-!
Tiny Nose: King! Piniet looks to see Tiny Nose by the door, script in hand. I am your biggest fan! Huh? Tiny Nose looks around to see no sign of King. Hey, where is Mr King? I wanted him to read my story.
Annoyed, Piniet takes Tiny Nose's story.
Piniet: Ugh! If I read this, will you go? So, I can declare my vengeance in peace.
Tiny Nose: Of course!
Piniet adjusts his glasses, and slowly reads. When he finishes reading, he is brought to tears, loving the story beyond words.
Piniet: Oh, it's beautiful! He bends down to Tiny Nose. You! You must let me publish this! I can make you a star!
Tiny Nose: Really?!
Pinet: Yes! Forget about King! Forget about the boy! You are the future!
He drapes King's jacket and sunglasses over Tiny Nose as his reptilian guards wake up and walk over.
Guard: Uh…boss, what about King…and the human…should we look for them.
Piniet: No, let them go. I have no need for them anymore. Why bother chasing them around when I have my new star author.
Tiny Nose: Tiny Nose shoots off finger guns. Pachew, pachew!
Luke and King were outside the covention near a house, both panting.
Luke: Phew. That was close. I think I'm going to stay away from reading books for a long time.
King: Luke, I'm sorry again for how I've been acting for the past 2 days. I shouldn't have shut you out like that. I was being a jerk.
Luke: Luke dismisses it with a hand way. Meh. Don't worry about its little buddy. Friends like us get into these sorts of arguments all the time and in the end, it just makes us closer friends.
King: Next time a writing contest comes, how about you and I make the most adventurous, violent and bloodthirsty story EVER, together!
Luke: The two share a fist bump. You got yourself a deal. Now let's go home and pretend this day never happened.
King: Agreed.
(Timeskip)
Back in the forest, Eda and Lilith give the merchant a brutal beating with the latter expressing she doesn't see her younger sister as a tired old bitty. To Eda's surprise instead of her older sister trying to capture she offers her the chance to join the Emperor's Coven so Belos can heal her curse. Unsurprisingly, Eda declines, not wanting to owe Belos anything but gives Lilith a pleasant farewell to which she returns. Lilith is saddened her sister won't join and vents that out on the merchant by blasting him when he speaks.
Eda lands outside the Owl House after her little sibling adventure with Lilith. Luke and King are snoring on the couch until Eda opens the door.
Eda: Hey, kids. Woof. She drops her staff and cracks her back. That was a rough couple days.
Luke: You think you had a rough day. You do not want to know what we went through,
Eda sits on the couch with them and smiles.
Eda: Ah. Well, nothing a bit of apple blood and a good book can't mend.
Luke and King widen their eyes, slightly shook up by today's book-themed event.
Luke: Books?
King: Nope, I don't know nothing about that.
Luke: We hate books. We loathe books! He looks at his watch. Wow! Look at the time!
King: What's a book? Good night!
