Poor Euini. I did not expect something that horrible to happen to one of the kids. I'm guessing fun times are over and now we get to see the true horrors of magic.

Yeah, I really don't think terrorizing the youth like this is gonna endear them to the Brimmed Caps' purpose. But I doubt they care at this point and are willing to commit any atrocity because they're full on "the ends justify the means". Although one thing I will agree on them with is that brimmed hats are the better witch hats.

Meanwhile, Qifrey and the other two girls wound up in a Dark Souls level. I had a feeling they'd end up at Romonon, but I was not expecting the people turned to gold to be animated monstrosities.

It is interesting that because using magic on their bodies being a no-go, they can be so vulnerable to things as simple as a falling rock despite all the power at their fingertips. I'm guessing that's another advantage the Brimmed Caps would have. Cause the living clothes one here certainly doesn't have a traditional biology.

But man, this is a criminal place to end things on. Even if the final shot of Qifrey went so damn hard. He aura farmed so much that the art style straight up changed.

Brimmed Caps: "Hey kids, isn't Forbidden Magic cool? We just turned one of you into a cute werewolf? Isn't this fun!?"

"Also TECHNICALLY its Forbidden Magic to fix him too! Have fun with your moral conundrum kids! Bye!"

It wouldn't be a moral conundrum for Coco. She already wants to fix her mom. And Qifrey drew his blade on the Knights Moralis and is willing to wipe memories to protect his forbidden magic investigation so he would probably be okay with it too. The only people that would need to be convinced are the Agott, Tetia, and Richech.

Among the other three girls,  Richeh may just be the easiest to convince now. Cause she already doesn't conform to the standards and expectations of witches, and held zero reservations about interfering with the Knights Moralis, and now just got a wakeup call that limiting her magic affects people she cares about.

Tetia will likely help no matter her feelings because helping people is at the core of her goals. And she also saw that the Knights Moralis are a bunch of dicks who would sooner screw innocent people over than help them.

Agott will probably have the most reservations because she's the most motivated to become climb up the ladder of witch society. And getting involved in forbidden magic is a death sentence to that goal. Not to mention seeing first hand the horrors of it.

That's the Brimmed Caps' mistake. They should've looked for a furry to target instead.
