Belos captures Lilith, King and Eda and plans to petrify them unless Luz gives him the portal to the human world, for reasons yet unknown. It's revealed late in Season 1 that Lilith was actually the one that cursed her.Įmperor Belos has promised Lilith that he would heal Eda's curse if Lilith was able to get her to join his coven - meaning Eda would succumb to his rules and not use magic freely - or Lilith would be banished if she failed. Eda suffers from a curse she received at a young age, which causes her to turn into an owl monster. Lilith continually makes life difficult for Eda, badgering her to join the Emperor's Coven and trying to arrest her, per the Emperor's command.

Eda's sister, Lilith, ended up as the leader of the most high-ranked coven - the Emperor's Coven. Eda had dropped out of Hexside in the past and never joined a coven. Luz begins to learn magic from Eda, using glyphs, before eventually attending Hexside School of Magic and Demonics, where her friends Willow and Gus go - and also Amity, the school's top student and Luz's love interest. She's able to text her mom from her phone and leads her to believe that she's in fact at the "Reality Check" camp her mother sent her to. Eda holds up her end of the deal, but Luz begins to feel at home within this world and decides to stay and practice becoming a witch. Eda promises to get Luz back to her human home if she agrees to help her and her roommate King - the self-proclaimed king of demons - on a mission to recover King's crown. Here, she befriends Eda, a rebellious witch who takes Luz to the titular Owl House, Eda's home.
