Finally got around to reading the toh pitch bible, and here are some of—in my opinion—the craziest nuggets of information from it:

-King being the de-powered "King of Demons" was seemingly originally gonna be played entirely straight

-Eda's curse made her old. Lilith seems to have inflicted it upon her at Obron's (Belos) request ruthlessly and without regret

-The Boiling Isles was not originally a country/continent(?) within the Demon Realm, but was a separate intermediary world that sat between the Demon & Human worlds

-The author of the Unassuming Princess books (proto-Good Witch Azura) was originally a real plot point, albeit not a major one. It was Eda's ex bf writing books about Eda's past adventures.

-Amity & Luz had this ep with the Bat Queen that sounds so cool, like really good Lumity content potential, me want

This is hands down my absolute favorite part of the pilot, this shows exactly why Luz and Eda connect so strongly. What the human world sees in Luz as being weird or freaky, Eda sees those same traits and sees them as skill and potential. She sees the world in such a way that’s so refreshing for Luz and gives her such strong validation without even realizing

I think one of the things from the original toh bible that I'm glad was changed is making Belos the emperor himself and not someone manipulating/co-opting a "rightful ruler's" will.

The way Belos warps the "Titan's will" in the actual show is directly akin to religious colonization and manipulation—imposing a god figure and then saying you're the sole voice of said god, as a means of control. Meanwhile, Obron is implied to be using the will of an actual tangible "rightful" monarch to enact control, not an intangible god, which removes these themes and could easily just end up falling into the trap of "oh no, it's just the wrong person in power, nothing is wrong with the actual system. Monarchy/empire is fine actually with the good guy in charge".

Of course, I trust the toh team would have pulled it together somehow if this wasn't changed. But Belos both being the actual emperor himself, and also creating the whole empirial rule & coven system himself, is such a more succint way to directly position the systems of power—not just the man in charge—as the fundamental problem.

So I dunno about y’all but to me the Owl House pilot just confirms that one way or another Lumity was always meant to be. No matter what timeline Luz will always come running to help Amity before she can even ask for it

We must stand against the Beta Hunter hate, he don't deserve it.
