When it showed up, and assuming that King was just a stray animal, the guard tried to kill them both so she picked him up and out of the castle they went. He had made all the relics the gang stumbled upon when they first entered the castle in the image of the guard creature. The creature she was running from in that flashback from eight years ago was a young King sneaking up on her. She said that she came to the island to hide from the Emperor’s Coven and take shelter from the boiling rains. King wonders, if this is his castle, why is HE the intruder?Įda takes the opportunity to give him the truth. Eda keeps the creature at bay, until everyone and herself get out, the creature comes after them but can’t make it past the doorway, leading the group to believe that he is protecting the castle from intruders. Eda appears in the doorway telling the gang to get out of the castle. The creature begins to chase them and when they’re cornered, a spell comes in and blasts the monster in the head. Then, Lilith and Hootie realize, King may in fact actually be the King of Demons.Īs Lilith and Hootie have King show them around to feed them more information, Luz discovers halls of temple guards when she realizes one is still alive in the, as King puts it, the Horrifying Monstrosity Room. Lilith ponders, if she doesn’t know about this island, this temple, and these carvings, who else knows what scholars may have missed. She still says that King’s story is a fake, but this temple is definitely a “History Mystery.” The group illuminates a chamber to find relics throughout and stumble upon ancient carvings that depict a large creature (That looks remarkably like King) ruling over a kingdom. The fog clears up and King sees a crumbling tower saying “Home Sweet Home.” Lilith is intrigued as they approach a blocked ruin, looking at all the symbols around the gateway, saying it predates any language she knows. King shouts that they are approaching the island, and Lilith is dumbfounded. Panicked, Eda screams “Not again!” as she runs out of the house. Just when you begin to wonder where she is in this episode, Eda comes out of the shower to find a note from King saying they all went off to his “Real” castle, and not to wait up for them. Hootie joins them as well, but morphs, rather disgustingly, into an easy to carry backpack/birdhouse tote, called “PortaHootie.” Luz, supporting King, and Lilith, whose historical prowess is being questioned, both reluctantly agree to go. King goes and gets both Eda and Lilith’s staffs saying that he will prove it and take them to his castle. Lilith doesn’t buy into it, and Luz asks her to just play along with his fantasy for his sake.

Devotees of the series (and Hootie) will remember that the crown he is speaking of came from a fast food restaurant in the human realm, but King says that one was a test to see if Luz and Eda were devoted to him, with the real crown still out there somewhere. A quick flashback over the vague story plays out with King being substantially larger than we know him as, until his mighty crown was taken from him. Something to remember, perhaps? King takes the opportunity to tell her that she’s wrong and tells his tale of his reign of terror as the mighty King of Demons. Lilith’s new BFF Hootsifer jumps in to protect her, but Lilith advises that it’s all make-believe.Īs the former lead historical scholar to the Emporers’ Coven, Lilith says that there is no such thing as a king of demons as the demons didn’t unite under a single ruler until Emperor Belos. As Lilith motions to assist Luz with her efforts in discovering more glyph spells like that, King’s plush army ambushes her. While King is frustrated, Luz discovers a way to turn herself invisible much to Lilith’s delight and King’s frustration.

He then goes to Lilith seeking assistance, but she is also occupied with her glyphs. Luz is working on her glyphs when King needs help as he is convinced Francois (one of his plush minions) is leading an uprising.

Immediately we are treated to a flashback of Eda running into an ancient temple to take shelter from something (I’m not being vague, we really don’t know!) with something running up on her and a frightened gasp. We all know him as the King of Demons, but where did King come from? Who is he? WHAT is he? The latest episode of The Owl House takes a closer look at the resident house pet and his origins, setting up for more adventures in the future of the Disney Channel series.
