"WELL, LUZ AND EMBER, have you ever in your lives seen something as breathtaking as this?!" Eda says to the two teenagers, who had horrified and disgusted expressions.
In front of the four was a large slug-like creature that looked dead, lying in heaps of trash on the beach, little ways from the Owl House.
"I don't like this," Luz comments, and Ember quickly nods her head in agreement.
"Yes, it doesn't get more inspiring than a Trash Slug. It makes a home, a life from others thrown by the wast side." Eda says as she throws a rubber chicken aside, "Until, blam! It gets blasted by a wave one day and croaks from the salt. Then, we can sell stuff that it ate!" Eda says as she holds up a pickaxe.
"Please don't do that," Ember groaned as she stepped backward, away from the mining equipment.
"Come you two, it's not every day you get to the dump and pick up a garbage carcass," King says as he lays down a duck towel on the sand.
"Eh, nuts to you both," Eda says before banging the pickaxe into the Trash Slug's eye.
"So Eda, what if we try some new lessons for Ember and I's apprenticeship?" Luz asks Eda, "like reading ancient scrolls? Or mix some potions?"
"Ugh, that sounds like a lot of Magic School stuff," Eda sneered as she continues to dig around.
"Wait, Magic School? Is there one around here?" Ember says enthusiastically, grinning as she bounces on the balls of her feet. "Like, winding towers, cute uniforms, dark plots, and threats around every turn at any corner? That kind of Magic School?"
"Something like that, but what's worse they force you to use magic the 'proper' way," Eda quotes, rolling her eyes, blowing a raspberry once finishing before turning back to the trash. "But magic isn't proper. It's wild and unpredictable, that's why it's so beautiful. I didn't finish school, yet look at me. Who wouldn't be who I am right now?" Luz and Ember cringed at the flies and trash around Eda, who took notice. "Uh, hey! Here's a lesson for you both. A great witch is resourceful." Eda says as she grabs onto the teenager's hands and dipped them into a goopy green substance. The two gags at the slimy feeling, until they felt something in their palms.
Luz looks at her hand to see a small object, "Oh hey. A greasy slim ball."
Ember looks at her hand to see an odd-looking pendant, she wiped away the remaining goop to reveal a lavender symbol that Ember recognized from something, "I have... a pendant?"
