We start on eda's shop where we see her looking bored while luz reads a book to Queen who's sitting in Xander's lap

Xander POV

Luz: emboldened by the dishonor Hecate had shown, Azura lifted her staff to the cotton candy skies and shouted, I challenge you to a Witch's Duel!

Queen: show me the picture

Eda: ugh! Please stop reading that, It's flowery language is an insult to witches and driving away all of our serious customers!

Xander: uh, Eda? What customers? There aren't even any other stands around. What's going on?

Eda: this is a bad omen, there must be something horrible happening today

Gus: Luz! Something amazing is happening today!

We all looked up and see Gus and willow run up to us excited

Luz: Gus, Willow! Hey!

Willow: It's the annual covention! Student witches get to see all the types of covens before they're placed in one, there's even a mystery guest this year!

Luz: A job fair for witches! Eda, can we go?

Eda: absolutely not I never joined a coven for a reason sure it's like a fun club for witches, but you're also giving up your magical independence to be part of a crooked system, in any case, I haven't been to one since we were girls

Luz: we?

Eda: I-I mean-

Luz: who's we? You have a mysterious past! Now we gotta go!

Eda: no!

Xander: I actually wanna go to

Eda: no means no! "She said as Xander gives her sad eyes before sighing" FINE! We can go just, please stop

Xander/Luz: yay!

As we enter the convention I couldn't help but look in awe at all the amazing stuff

Eda: gotta keep a low profile "she said putting a hood on"

Luz: Is this cowl really necessary?

Eda: do you think all my wanted posters are for petty theft? "She said as many objects fall out of her hair before picking them up" partly but the big whammy is I disobeyed the law and refused to join a coven, if I'm seen, I could go to jail, again "she said as they started to walk by some of the covens"

Gus: those are the main nine covens, but there are hundreds of other ones you can join

Willow: there's Flower Coven, Artist Coven, Big Dog Coven, Small Cat Coven, Tiniest Cat Coven

Eda: [groans]

Willow: also the grumpy coven

Eda: what was that? "She said as everyone runs from eda while she follows as they see many different covens"

Luz: wow! Acceptance? Comradery? A sense of belonging? Covens sound incredible! Eda, why haven't you ever joined one?

Eda: watch closely, Luz when you join a coven, all your other magic is sealed away but since I never joined a coven, I can do every kind of magic, that's why I'm the most powerful witch on the Boiling Isles

Xander: well you are really powerful eda "he said as she try's to hide her blush before they passed a coven surrounded by many people"

Luz: that panel looks popular "she said as Gus gasps"
