“Foolish child! Leave this place before you meet your demise!”

“Do not underestimate me, Garlog, for I am the Good Witch Luz, hunter of monsters!”

Love the s1e1 callback, very cute, though I’m not sure why Luz would be hunting monsters. The fact that she’s straight up wielding Owlbert made me double-take, and at first I thought it was an indication this is a dream sequence, but... what if Eda can’t cast with him anymore? Luz was doing fine flying him in the Belos fight, and she doesn’t have magic bile either, but...

*TOH S2A Spoilers* Things Aren’t What They Appear

WARNING THESE CONTAIN TOH S2 EP 1 “SEPARATE TIDES” SPOILERS! IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN IT DO NOT READ!

This has been seen before but it seems things aren’t what they appear in the demon realm.

First, the demons do not match any of the pictures. First we have King who was a mighty demon king and yet he is small and powerless. Then we get the Snaggleback who is supposed to be the scariest demon but turns out to be a small monkey with a spiked shell who is extremely timid. Now we have Garlog. On the wanted poster, looks like a jacked demon but turns out to be a small one eyed horned rabbit looking creature with an extremely deep voice. At this point it cannot be a coincidence that the demons have been exaggerated. There have been many theories going around about this such as demons losing form when dying, something taking their powers, or Belo’s weakening their powers on purpose.

Second, beasts on the island that are ferocious are docile unless provoked. This was proven when Eda explains the Selkidomus is a peaceful creature unless attacked or provoked. Yet, it was targeted by the Emperor’s Coven because it was attacking ships and causing havoc. However, the creature was protecting their baby from danger. This isn’t the only beast who looks dangerous but is actually docile. In “Adventures in the Elements”, Luz and Eda encounter the Slither Beast on the Knee. Eda states the beast is very harmless unless provoked. It was not targeted by the Emperor’s Coven but that may soon change. If these creatures are docile most of the time, why target them if they pose no threat?

We have to wonder why this is happening? In the beginning of “Separate Tides” Luz comments how the Emperor has been taking over after the incident. We see a statue of him in the middle of town and his guards in every corner. Belos’s actions are becoming stranger and more involved. I can definitely see the purpose of making the demons weaker but why go after docile beasts? Is this related to the Day of Unity which is still unknown. Could Belos be threatened by the beasts as well as demons and wants them all eliminated? Maybe related to the “Cursed Belos” we saw in the promo (still to be undetermined)? What about if the demons and beasts got in the way of the portal? Honestly there could be a multitude of reasons as to why Belos is suddenly targeting beasts and demons. Any thoughts on why?

...she’s bounty hunting? Damn, the Owl House must be hurting for cash. I can’t imagine she’d go around turning people in to the fuzz for any other reason.

...shouldn’t have expected anything different, lol.

Is it just me or is the perspective on Owlbert in that first shot just super satisfying to look at?

My name in German would be translated to Glaube, meaning faith or belief. I told my friend this, and she mispronounced it as Garlog. Now she calls me Garlog, which is apparently some demon thing. And I'm totally fine with it.

garlog

lha btsun byang chub 'od - Lhats?n Jangchub ?; the nephew of the King of Gugey, Lha Lama Yeshe ? (lha bla ma ye shes 'od). Lha Lama sent envoys with offerings of gold to invite Atisha to Tibet so that he could restore the purity of the teachings, which were in decline. But Atisha refused. Meanwhile, Lha Lama was captured by the king of Garlog, who was alarmed at any effort to revive the teachings. The king demanded Lha Lama's weight in gold as ransom. When Jangchub ? brought it, Lha Lama said, "I am now old, and it matters little whether I live or not. Use the gold to bring Pandita Atisha here." So Jangchub ? sent Naktso Lotsawa to India with the invitation. Hearing that the king Lha Lama had sacrificed his life for the sake of the teachings, Atisha said he could not refuse the invitation, although he had received a prediction from Tara that he would live to the age of ninety-two if he remained in India but only until seventy-three if he went to Tibet.
