1. The wind?
Copy !req
2. Are you awake?
Copy !req
3. I hailed us a Pegasus Carriage.
Copy !req
4. Huh?
Copy !req
5. Flying so high must've
been cold in your pajamas.
Copy !req
6. We're almost there.
Copy !req
7. There, can you see it?
Copy !req
8. That's my atelier and
the school you'll be learning at.
Copy !req
9. The School of the Grassland
Copy !req
10. I planted Guard Briar seeds
around your house.
Copy !req
11. They'll grow in no time
and act as a barrier.
Copy !req
12. Your house was petrified
by an unknown spell,
Copy !req
13. so it'll keep people
from getting too close to it.
Copy !req
14. So...
Copy !req
15. Coco?
Copy !req
16. What's the matter?
Copy !req
17. I promised my mom I wouldn't
leave her by herself.
Copy !req
18. But I...
Copy !req
19. Coco...
Copy !req
20. Don't be hard on yourself.
You didn't know what you were doing.
Copy !req
21. Here, let's wash your face.
Copy !req
22. Let all your tears out, then look ahead.
Copy !req
23. Because this is going to
be your new home starting today.
Copy !req
24. Um, what is this?
Copy !req
25. Hmm? Water, of course.
Copy !req
26. It feels too round and floaty
to be called water.
Copy !req
27. Ah. I totally forgot!
You need a change of clothes.
Copy !req
28. Huh?
Copy !req
29. How am I supposed to use this?
Copy !req
30. Mister Qifrey?
Copy !req
31. I'm scared of touching
magic I don't understand.
Copy !req
32. There's nothing to be afraid of!
Copy !req
33. It's not a difficult
kind of magic to handle.
Copy !req
34. Want me to teach you?
Copy !req
35. That's a Vapor Bubble.
Copy !req
36. It's magic that pulls water
out of the moisture in the air.
Copy !req
37. Here, hold out your hands.
Copy !req
38. Tilt the lower tray,
and the water pours out.
Copy !req
39. Wow, that's amazing. Thank you.
Copy !req
40. Thank you!
Copy !req
41. Huh?
Copy !req
42. I love being told "Thank you."
Copy !req
43. So thank you!
Copy !req
44. Oh, um... I see.
Copy !req
45. Thanks.
Copy !req
46. Thank you for thanking me again!
Copy !req
47. Thank you for thanking me,
and thank you again...
Copy !req
48. Just ignore her if she's too much.
Copy !req
49. She'll stop eventually if you
just don't respond.
Copy !req
50. How mean, Richeh! I was just helping her.
Copy !req
51. The pen and ink.
Copy !req
52. Are you both witches?
Copy !req
53. Just apprentices.
We're students of Master Qifrey.
Copy !req
54. Wait, so you're not?
Copy !req
55. I totally thought you were
a fellow student like us.
Copy !req
56. Are we the same age?
Which atelier did you come from?
Copy !req
57. Uh...
Copy !req
58. I don't think I can call myself
a student just yet.
Copy !req
59. I mean, yesterday was
the first time I ever drew a spell.
Copy !req
60. But I'm going to live here as of today.
Copy !req
61. What?
Copy !req
62. Huh?
Copy !req
63. Wait, so you're the one who did it?
Copy !req
64. Did what?
Copy !req
65. There's a rumor going around
Copy !req
66. about an Outsider who used
forbidden magic...
Copy !req
67. That they were allowed to become an
apprentice with their memories intact...
Copy !req
68. Coco.
Copy !req
69. Are you okay?
Copy !req
70. Mr. Qifrey...
Copy !req
71. Looks like you all introduced yourselves.
Copy !req
72. Richeh and Tetia,
will you go study in your rooms
Copy !req
73. after helping with the morning chores?
Copy !req
74. Okay!
Copy !req
75. Here are your new clothes.
This is what my students wear.
Copy !req
76. Don't be afraid. I'll explain everything.
Copy !req
77. Looks like it fits you perfectly.
Copy !req
78. Now then, let us begin
the story of magic.
Copy !req
79. Long ago, magic wasn't something special.
Copy !req
80. All you needed was a combination of
known patterns and specially made ink.
Copy !req
81. It was a familiar tool
that anyone could use.
Copy !req
82. However, it sparked conflict
time and time again.
Copy !req
83. When humans are given
the power to do anything,
Copy !req
84. "anything" is what they will do.
Copy !req
85. And so, many horrific spells were created.
Copy !req
86. The few people who still had a conscience
Copy !req
87. turned away from conflict
and unified as witches
Copy !req
88. to take other people's memories of magic,
Copy !req
89. entrusting the secret only to
disciples sworn to protect it.
Copy !req
90. That was the Day of the Pact.
Copy !req
91. Ever since then,
people have been made to believe
Copy !req
92. that magic is a power only
a chosen few can wield.
Copy !req
93. If the truth were to spread,
Copy !req
94. the world would collapse
into lawlessness once again.
Copy !req
95. Everyone's being careful
to keep the secret.
Copy !req
96. That's why they started
talking about you.
Copy !req
97. I'm sorry you had to hear that.
Copy !req
98. No, I brought this on myself.
Copy !req
99. Um, what's "forbidden magic"?
Copy !req
100. Magic that was drawn
during the age of conflict
Copy !req
101. and banned when the Day of the Pact came—
Copy !req
102. magic for hurting others.
Copy !req
103. Please teach me!
Copy !req
104. Teach me all about the magic
that I'm not supposed to use!
Copy !req
105. I want to know!
Copy !req
106. I'll be too scared to do anything
if I don't know what it is.
Copy !req
107. This is where I usually tell
my students not to rush things,
Copy !req
108. but that's harder with you.
Copy !req
109. Come with me.
Copy !req
110. There are countless forbidden spells,
Copy !req
111. but it's simple when you boil it down.
Copy !req
112. Any spell cast directly upon
the human body
Copy !req
113. is prohibited under all circumstances.
Copy !req
114. This includes transformation,
age alteration,
Copy !req
115. teleportation without
doors or conveyances,
Copy !req
116. as well as the manipulation
of thoughts or emotion,
Copy !req
117. the harming of others,
or even healing them.
Copy !req
118. There is, however, a single exception.
Copy !req
119. Erasing memories?
Copy !req
120. Exactly.
Copy !req
121. Most spells are cast on tools.
Copy !req
122. Like carriages or lamps.
Copy !req
123. Or windows like this one.
Copy !req
124. A lake?
Copy !req
125. But we were surrounded
by hills just a minute ago.
Copy !req
126. It's called a Windowway.
Copy !req
127. It connects two round windows
that bear the same pattern.
Copy !req
128. Can you see that building over there?
Copy !req
129. That's the Tower of Tomes.
Copy !req
130. To preserve knowledge,
all books related to magic
Copy !req
131. are duplicated there
the moment they're written.
Copy !req
132. The picture book...
Copy !req
133. Let's go there right now!
I won't sleep until I find it!
Copy !req
134. Hold your horses.
Copy !req
135. That was the Librarians' Trial.
Copy !req
136. The Tower of Tomes
is protected by four librarians,
Copy !req
137. and only witches who overcome it
are allowed to enter.
Copy !req
138. So you need to study
if you want to go inside.
Copy !req
139. Coco.
Copy !req
140. It made me happy earlier when you
expressed how eager you are to learn.
Copy !req
141. It's natural to feel fear.
Copy !req
142. But...
Copy !req
143. The spells that are not forbidden
Copy !req
144. are those that bring
happiness to all of us.
Copy !req
145. So why not learn about
the gentler sort of spell?
Copy !req
146. That's how I feel.
Copy !req
147. What do you say?
Copy !req
148. Yes. Of course, Master Qifrey.
Copy !req
149. This'll be your room.
Copy !req
150. Looks like Agott's not around.
Copy !req
151. Who's Agott?
Copy !req
152. Your roommate.
Copy !req
153. The two of you will share a workspace.
Copy !req
154. You'll have your own bedroom, though.
Copy !req
155. Go down the stairs in the back.
Don't worry, the doors can be locked.
Copy !req
156. You should get some rest.
Copy !req
157. I have some things to take care of,
so call if you need anything.
Copy !req
158. It's me, Qifrey.
Copy !req
159. Thank you for allowing me
to take in Coco as my apprentice.
Copy !req
160. Yes. No, nothing about the picture book.
Copy !req
161. She's overwhelmed right now.
Copy !req
162. So this is what a witch's room looks like?
Copy !req
163. That's my side of the desk.
Copy !req
164. Move so I can land.
Copy !req
165. Oh, sorry.
Copy !req
166. You're Agott, right? I'm Coco—
Copy !req
167. I know who you are.
Copy !req
168. You're the Outsider
everyone's talking about.
Copy !req
169. I heard you'll be joining as a new peer.
Copy !req
170. I'm sorry about your mother.
Copy !req
171. Th-Thanks.
Copy !req
172. Because of what you've done,
Copy !req
173. she'll never return to being human.
Copy !req
174. I came here to save her.
Copy !req
175. By becoming a witch—
Copy !req
176. Our whole lives, we've been
drawing Casting Seals
Copy !req
177. until our fingertips turned black.
Copy !req
178. We worked and worked
until we passed the tests,
Copy !req
179. and were only then allowed to
become apprentices.
Copy !req
180. You're an ordinary girl who knows nothing.
Copy !req
181. There's no way an Outsider such as
yourself can become a witch.
Copy !req
182. I... I've drawn spells already!
Copy !req
183. I won't know until I try it!
Copy !req
184. Then prove yourself.
Copy !req
185. Your tests start tomorrow—
Copy !req
186. Agott! Coco!
Copy !req
187. Food is ready!
Copy !req
188. Let's eat!
Copy !req
189. I'm starving.
Copy !req
190. Me, too! We're having
Coco's welcome party today!
Copy !req
191. Lots of food.
Copy !req
192. Same as usual.
Copy !req
193. Master, what happened
to the welcome party?
Copy !req
194. It was so last-minute.
We'll do it another time.
Copy !req
195. Where's Agott?
Copy !req
196. She said she's eating in her room.
Copy !req
197. She should join us once in a while.
Copy !req
198. Okay, let's eat.
Copy !req
199. Would you do the honors, Coco?
Copy !req
200. Huh? Uh, sure.
Copy !req
201. Let's eat.
Copy !req
202. Let's eat.
Copy !req
203. It's so good.
Copy !req
204. I know, right? We bake it ourselves.
Copy !req
205. Master is a great chef.
Copy !req
206. That's amazing.
Copy !req
207. It's thanks to the locally grown wheat.
Copy !req
208. We get great veggies around here.
Copy !req
209. Thank you for the food.
Copy !req
210. Mom...
Copy !req
211. I need to take tests in order
to become an apprentice.
Copy !req
212. But it doesn't go into detail
about what you need to do.
Copy !req
213. Need to do about what?
Copy !req
214. There are lots of things books
don't tell you when it comes to magic.
Copy !req
215. You'll learn more
from doing than from reading.
Copy !req
216. What are these?
Copy !req
217. Your Components—
tools used to draw magic.
Copy !req
218. Wow!
Copy !req
219. They look so cool!
Copy !req
220. The Ink Wand. A pen.
Copy !req
221. I still feel a bit scared
touching this. But...
Copy !req
222. Mom, I'm going to save you
no matter what it takes!
Copy !req
223. Master Qifrey, I look
forward to our lessons.
Copy !req
224. Okay, let's get started.
Copy !req
225. Are you okay, Coco?
Shall we take a break?
Copy !req
226. I-I'm fine.
Copy !req
227. Okay, try explaining to me
what you learned.
Copy !req
228. O-Okay.
Copy !req
229. Um... A spell is composed
of three elements.
Copy !req
230. The sigil is in the center.
Copy !req
231. It's surrounded by lines
that are called signs.
Copy !req
232. The outer circle that
completes it is called the ring.
Copy !req
233. The types of sigil—fire,
Copy !req
234. water,
Copy !req
235. light,
Copy !req
236. and wind.
Copy !req
237. They determine what kind
of magic it becomes.
Copy !req
238. The signs determine
what form the magic takes,
Copy !req
239. as well as its size and direction.
Copy !req
240. Lastly, when the outer ring is completed,
Copy !req
241. that locks the seal in place
and activates the spell.
Copy !req
242. I'm barely keeping up
just memorizing everything.
Copy !req
243. But you were able to explain it!
Copy !req
244. I'm going to try drawing one!
Copy !req
245. I like it! That's the spirit.
Copy !req
246. Huh?
Copy !req
247. Don't throw it away.
Copy !req
248. No! Please don't look at it!
Copy !req
249. It's not something I can show you!
Copy !req
250. It's sloppy, and the lines
are all wobbly and messy...
Copy !req
251. Of course it is. You're just learning.
Copy !req
252. But there's something else you
should pay attention to.
Copy !req
253. Look right here.
See how your ring is not connected?
Copy !req
254. A spell won't activate
unless it's a complete circle.
Copy !req
255. It's natural to have unsteady hands when
you're learning to use a new tool.
Copy !req
256. You're like a newborn
foal just learning to stand.
Copy !req
257. You'll get used to it and be
running around freely in no time.
Copy !req
258. Now, connect the lines
and activate the spell.
Copy !req
259. I-I'm sorry! Very sorry!
It was an accident!
Copy !req
260. Sorry! I'll dry it! I'll dry it off!
Copy !req
261. Calm down, Coco!
Copy !req
262. Sorry, Agott. Are you okay?
Copy !req
263. Has it dried?
Copy !req
264. Not yet?
Copy !req
265. It's fine, Master.
I'm not bothered by it at all.
Copy !req
266. But may I see the Casting Seal she drew?
Copy !req
267. Huh? Sure.
Copy !req
268. Ah, I found the problem.
Copy !req
269. Look.
Copy !req
270. This sign is longer than the rest.
Copy !req
271. It amplified pressure in this direction
and caused the water to gush out.
Copy !req
272. As always, your observation
is on point, Agott.
Copy !req
273. I think I can leave her in your care.
Copy !req
274. Huh?
Copy !req
275. For the next two or three days,
I'll be out visiting the Great Hall.
Copy !req
276. Please look after her
while I'm gone, Agott.
Copy !req
277. Absolutely, Master.
Copy !req
278. Wait!
Copy !req
279. There's a lot you can learn
from your peers.
Copy !req
280. Watch her closely and learn, Coco.
Copy !req
281. M-Master...
Copy !req
282. Um, I'm really sorry about that. I—
Copy !req
283. You don't have to keep apologizing.
Copy !req
284. I said I wasn't bothered by it, didn't I?
Copy !req
285. Now then, Coco.
Copy !req
286. Yesterday, I told you to prove yourself.
Copy !req
287. No more cushy little lessons.
Copy !req
288. Your tests start now.
Copy !req
289. What?
Copy !req
290. Episode 3:
Copy !req
291. The Dadah Range Test
Copy !req
