Our story begins with Monika, a young witch, that has to practice in
secret thanks to Lord Ky'debaul taking them to his castle. Monika is
preparing for her first rite of passage bonding with an imp familiar.
She is proud of her binding cloth now finished waiting for Lunar
Ceremony. Little does Monika know that her cousin Darmin covets what
Monika has. Darmin secretly wants all the attention that their Aunt
Grecha lavishes on her cousins Monika and Wenda. Darmin feels that she
is the better witch and cannot understand why her Aunt Grecha only
teaches Wenda and Monika instead of her. Darmin switches her poorly made
binding cloth with Monika's binding cloth then she asks her Aunt Grecha
to be included in the Lunar Ceremony in two days time. Aunt Grecha
reluctantly agrees to Darmin's request wondering what she's up to now.
Monika discovers that the binding cloth she has is not her own yet can't
prove it to her Aunt Grecha before the ceremony. The Lunar Ceremony
moves forward as plan, Monika knows that her binding cloth is not her
own, when the demon Belial appears in sacred circle instead of an imp.
Monika is heartbroken and crushed by these turn of events where she
flees to her room after the ceremony. Monika is unable to sleep and
seeks out a spell to prove that she is not lying about the binding cloth
not being the one she made. Wenda warns Monika about proving Darmin
switching binding cloths to be dangerous for Monika. The truth is
revealed yet Aunt Grecha won't hear of it at all and tells Monika that
she can no longer teach her magic. Monika resolves to leave that very
day to find a teacher stronger in magic. Monika feels that she is being
guided by the Moon Goddess in her quest. Eventually Monika makes her way
Cut Back Bay and Paniz's house. Paniz is surprised to find Monika at her
doorstep two months earlier than expected but maybe tha is for the best.
Paniz slowly teaches Monika about the magic she has within herself.
Meanwhile back at Aunt Grecha's, Darmin is seeking more and more magic
around her. Wenda stays out of Darmin's way much to Darmin's dismay.
