Hello I come here to break our hearts all over again.
This time I've been rewatching episodes with Lilith and Eda.
Something I've noticed is that Lilith when referring to Eda, doesn't use Eda's nickname: ”Eda”, she uses Edalyn or sister. I don't know about you but I noticed a slight difference in the tone of her voice.
”I'm Eda the Owl Lady, the most powerful witch on the Boiling Isles”
But Lilith even though she knows this, keeps referring to her as sister or Edalyn. Almost as if refusing to acknowledge that her sister made a path of her own and chose a name for herself, one she preferred to be addressed.
Episode 8 ”Once Upon a Swap” Lilith says:
”Sister time and again I've offered you my help, yet you foolishly run back to your worthless life”
Episode 11 ”Sense and Insensitivity” Lilith says:
”Of course you would be here just to be a nuisance”
The same happens on Wing it like Witches and while they play grudgby.
”The curse isn't just affecting your hair but your memory as well”
Lilith looks down on Eda, because she had better trophies, a better status as captain inside the team, she's the bigger sister she would have to be better than her little sister, wouldn't she?
Wow how we've never noticed this before.
Lilith did look down on Eda's choices all this time.
And it goes deeper than a sisterly competitiveness or a fight with your siblings that happens in all families (believe me I have a sister).
It's almost like Lilith was jealous for not only the magic or power Eda had, but could it be she was also jealous of having a sister?
We know nothing about Eda and Lilith's parents, so I could think their parents made Eda and Lilith compete against each other all the time, for praise, to accomplish and reach for higher things (like the emperor's coven). They compared their childs. And that could affect physically and emotionally every kid.
But it wasn't until Eda broke and forgot those expectations, became more rebellious by not following rules or objectives that other people put on her, that she could finally make a path of her own, she could live happily with her own choices and not caring of what her parents and others said which could have raised Lilith's jealousy... to the point of cursing her own sister.
