Day of the Sorcerers

The royal carriage, carrying Sofia, Madeline (both in their sorcerer's apprentice outfits), Wormwood and Cedric, landed outside Hexley hall, where several wizards and sorcerers were gathered.

"Here we are, girls." Cedric smiled. "The first ever Conjurers' Conference. have you ever seen such a sight?"

"It looks like every sorcerer from every kingdom is here!" Sofia noted.

"And already ahead of us in line." Wormwood grumbled.

"Oh, hush, Wormy." Cedric shrugged. "It will be worth the wait. They've all come to Hexley Hall to share new spells, pow-wow over potions, and horn on over hexes!"

"We're really glad to be your apprentices again!" Madeline smiled.

"As you should be." Cedric smirked. "you shall be given the honor of helping me demonstrate my latest feats of sorcerery. The world will finally see what makes Cedric the Sensational so... well, sensational!"

Cedric bumped into an older sorcerer.

"Watch it, fumble-feet!" The sorcerer scowled.

"Oh, you watch it, grumpy wizard!" Cedric shot back.

A bell rang, and the doors to the school opened. The sorcerers all entered into a room with a statue of Grimtrix.

"Do you think... Grimtrix will be here?" Sofia asked nervously.

"Yes, no doubt." Cedric nodded. "But not to worry, girls. He wouldn't dare go after your Amulet with all of these wizards around."

As they walked past the statue, Grimtrix's pet weasel, Wriggly, watched them.

"Whoa..." Madeline gaped, as they entered the main convention arena, with lots of magical attractions.

"A-mazing." Sofia agreed.

"Such mesmerizing magic!" Cedric smiled.

"Wand tune-ups!" One stallholder called. "Get your wands in tip-top shape!"

"Shaving glasses, over here!" A tiny wizard called. "Come over here, and get shrunk!"

As most of the wizards gathered elsewhere, one sorcerers was painting a picture of floating islands, the griffon she painted coming to life and flying around the image.

"What are you painting?" Madeline asked as she and Sofia came over.

"This, my dear, is the land where all magic comes from." The sorceress declared. "The Mystic Isles."

"I've read about the Mystic Isles in stories." Sofia declared.

"Me too." Madeline nodded. "But we didn't know they were real."

"Oh, very real." The sorceress smiled. "It's a land filled with many mystical, magical creatures." She painted a unicorn, which leapt off the canvas.

"Amazing!" Sofia beamed.

"If only the Mystic Isles weren't so hard to get to." Cedric sighed. "Perhaps we'd go there one day."

"June!" Madeline rushed over to her friend. "I didn't know you'd be here!"

"Me neither." Sofia agreed.

"Hey, girls." June smiled. "I'm helping Wu Chang with his demonstration!"

Nearby, the Wei Ling royal sorcerer floated in the air.

"To some, a paper kite is child's play." He announced. "But add a little magic, and it's everyone's play!"

Wu Chang waved his staff at the dragon kite June was holding, causing it to spring to life and fly around.

"Oh, my..." Cedric smiled, as the dragon flew by him.

Close by, Wriggly came near, a blue envelope appearing in her mouth. She slipped into Cedric's robe.

"Ahh!" Cedric yelped, as she slipped in the envelope in his sleeve, then departed. "What is this?" He examined the envelope. "'An invitation for Cedric the Sensational'? Let's see what it's for!" He opened the envelope and read the card inside. "'Please meet us in the Enchanted Portrait Parlor for a secret meeting of the greatest sorcerers in the world'. Did you hear that, Wormy? Someone considers me one of the greatest sorcerers in the world! Oh, I'm flattered! I'm flabbergasted! I'm-"

"Wasting time." Wormwood pointed out. "We must get to this very important meeting right away."

"Yes, of course." Cedric nodded. "Let's go!"

Cedric pushed his way through the crowd.

"Pardon me! Make way! Very important sorcerer, coming through!" He announced.

Cedric saw a magic hand beckon him to a room behind a curtain, and followed.

"June, have you seen Mr Cedric?" Madeline asked.

"We're supposed to demonstrate his new spells." Sofia added.

"Oh, over there!" June pointed to the curtain. "There he is!"

They saw Cedric running through the curtain, followed by Wriggly.

"That's Grimtrix's weasel!" Madeline gasped.

"Excuse us!" Sofia told June, as they followed after.

Cedric and Wormwood made their way through a corridor, followed by Wriggly, then Sofia and Madeline. Cedric reached a door, entering it just as Sofia and Madeline spotted him.

As Cedric walked into the parlor, he was joined by a cackling Wriggly. He saw a table, around which was seated Morgana, Baron Von Rocha, Greylock, and Grimtrix

"Cedric, old chum!" Grimtrix smiled. "You made it!"

"Grimtrix?" Cedric gaped. "You invited me here?" He leaned in closer. "Is that Morgana? What is this all about?"

"Do have a seat, and find out." Grimtrix offered.

"The last time I saw you, you declared yourself 'no more Mr nice sorcerer'." Cedric recalled.

"That's still true." Grimtrix admitted. "So if it's nice you want, you should leave now. But a powerful sorcerer such as yourself may want to stick around and hear my plan first."

"Powerful, you say?" Cedric asked.

"And I have a way for you to gain even more power." Grimtrix declared. "So have a seat."

Grimtrix pointed at Cedric, and a stream of magic flew out of his finger and pushed Cedric down onto a chair.

"Let us begin." Grimtrix smiled. "Friends, wizards, and sorcerers, I ask you: Aren't you tired of useless royals telling you what to do? How many times have we been forced to use our magic to entertain at silly banquets?"

"More times than I can count!" The old sorcerer from before declared.

"How often has our magic gotten a king out of a pickle, only for him to take all the credit?" Grimtrix asked.

"Yeah! I'm tired of being overlooked!" The tiny sorcerer squeaked.

"We wizards are wiser than royals." Grimtrix declared. "We are magical, for Merlin's sake! We should rule the kingdoms!"

"What exactly are you proposing, Grimtrix?" Greylock asked.

"That you join me in a special group I shall call 'The Order of the Wand'." Grimtrix declared. "And together, we shall take over all the kingdoms!"

"All of them?" The old wizard frowned. "Exactly how are we supposed to do that?"

"With these Medusa Stones." Grimtrix opened a box containing green glowing stones.

Sofia and Madeline slipped into the room.

"The legendary Medusa Stones?" Greylock gasped. "I didn't think they even existed!"

"What do they do?" The old wizard asked.

"Once you put a Medusa Stone on your wand, you can cast an unbreakable spell that will freeze anyone in place, and make them still as stone." Grimtrix revealed, putting a Stone on his wand.

"And then?" The tiny sorcerer asked.

"And then, with no-one to stop you, their kingdoms would be yours for the taking!" Grimtrix declared.

"Fantastic plan, Grimtrix." Greylock declared. "But how can you be sure those stones will work?"

"They can't." The old wizard stood up. "Which is why I want no part of this plan."

Grimtrix zapped the old wizard as he walked away, causing him to freeze up.

"Go ahead, friends." Grimtrix smirked. "Try to break the spell."

"Animato momenta!" Greylock waved his wand, but nothing happened. "Animato momenta! Animato momenta!"

"Flowvius tobious!" The tiny sorcerer stepped in, with the same results.

"Potent, indeed." Greylock admitted.

"Once we take over our kingdoms, the Order of the Wand will rule the world!" Grimtrix announced.

"Huzzah!" Two sorcerers cheered.

"Oh no!" Sofia gasped, as she and Madeline watched from behind the curtain.

"This can't be happening!" Madeline gasped.

"Hear, hear!" Greylock and Morgana cheered.

"The world!" Baron Von Rocha added.

"No king, queen, prince, princess, or jester will tell us what to do!" Grimtrix sneered. "So, if you want to show the world how great you are, then gather around. Your Medusa Stone awaits!"

"Mr Cedric!" Sofia hissed.

"Sofia? Madeline?" Cedric jumped.

"Quick, over here!" Madeline pulled Cedric through the curtain.

"I can't believe what Grimtrix is doing!" Sofia seethed.

"Me neither." Madeline added. "We have to stop him."

"Stop him?" Cedric gulped. "Well, um-"

"And why did he think you would be part of such an awful plan?" Sofia asked.

"Oh, I haven't the foggiest idea!" Cedric lied.

"Just tell them, Cedric!" Wormwood urged.

"Tell us what?" Madeline asked.

"That... I intend to stall Grimtrix and his evil friends while you gather all the good sorcerers to stop him!" Cedric lied.

"Oh, oh!" Sofia smiled. "That is a great idea!"

"Yes, and make sure to get as many as you can." Cedric urged. "Take your time, I can hold them off!"

"You're the best, Mr Cedric!" Madeline smiled, as she and Sofia hugged him.

"Yes, I am." Cedric smirked.

After Sofia and Madeline left, Wormwood slapped Cedric.

"You cannot let those goody-goody princesses ruin a perfectly wicked plan!" He growled.

"I'm not ruining anything, Wormy!" Cedric shot back. "I only said those things to get them to leave!"

"Then you're going through with the plan?" Wormwood asked.

"Yes. Probably. ...Oh, I don't know!" Cedric groaned.

"What is there not to know, Cedric?" Wormwood demanded.

"For all these years, I've yearned of taking over Enchancia." Cedric sighed. "But something seems... different now."

Cedric: When I was growing up and they all made fun of me
I vowed that I would show them how evil I could be
But now the day has come and the kingdom can be mine
So why am I so gloomy when I should be feeling fine

My evil dreams were my friends when I was all alone
My evil schemes made me feel like I had a home

But now it seems that I've changed
I don't know what to do
My evil dreams could come true
But I'm not sure I want them to.

Wormwood: The Princesses may be nice to you but what about the rest?
All those who point and laugh at you must see that you're the best.

Cedric: I've always had so much to prove
I cannot hesitate
It's time for me to make my move and be Cedric the Great

My evil dreams are my friends when I am alone
My evil schemes make me feel like I have a home

My evil dream
Nothing's changed
I know just what to do
My evil dreams will come true
Not that I'm sure I want them to

And then at last
Yes at last
My evil dreams will finally come true

Cedric walked back into the Parlor, holding up his wand. Grimtrix attached a Medusa Stone to it. Cedric held up his wand triumphantly.

Meanwhile, Sofia and Madeline rushed back to the main area.

"June, have you seen Wu Chang?" Sofia asked.

"I think he went to the library with some of the other sorcerers." June answered. "What's going on?"

"We'll explain on the way." Madeline declared, as they led June away.

As they reached the library, they saw the magic shusher hand holding the doors shut, as the sorcerers inside struggled to escape.

"Wu Chang?" June called.

"Merlin?" Sofia asked. "What happened?"

"The magical library shusher led us in here, then locked us inside!" Merlin explained.

"Ohh, Grimtrix must be behind all this." Madeline frowned. "Sofia, June, we need to get the shusher away from the door."

"But how?" June asked.

"By getting it to shush us!" Sofia smiled.

"Good idea, Sof." Madeline nodded. "Be as loud as you can be!"

"Like this?!" June shrieked.

"Even louder!" Sofia yelled.

The shusher shushed.

"Like this loud!" Madeline started hitting a suit of armor with its own spear.

"I can be that loud!" June started stamping her feet. "See how loud I am?!"

The shusher finally moved its hand around the door, allowing the good sorcerers to escape.

"We have to hurry!" Sofia told them. "Grimtrix is giving Medusa stones to all the evil sorcerers, so they can take over everybody's kingdoms!"

"There's no need to panic." Merlin declared. "All you have to do it remove the Medusa Stone from the sorcerers' wands, and any spell cast with them will be broken!"

As they got outside, they saw the evil sorcerers take off in their flying carriages.

"No, there they go!" Madeline gasped.

"It's up to us to stop them!" Merlin told his fellow good sorcerers. "Wizards, to your kingdoms!"

The sorcerers headed out.

"I guess Mr Cedric wasn't able to stall them." Sofia surmised.

"I hope he's okay." Madeline added. "Let's find out!"

They rushed back to the Parlor, just in time to see Cedric and Grimtrix cackling.

"Have fun taking over Enchancia, Cedric!" Grimtrix declared.

"Don't you mean 'King Cedric'?" Cedric smirked.

"Oh, of course!" Grimtrix cackled. "King Cedric!"

Grimtrix left through a magic door, which Cedric headed for the curtain, which Sofia pulled open.

"Mr Cedric!" Sofia yelled.

"Princess Sofia? Princess Madeline?" Cedric gasped.

"What are you doing?" Madeline asked.

"It's... it's not what it looks like!" Cedric stuttered.

"Oh, it's exactly what it looks like." Wormwood smirked. "He's taking over your kingdom, princesses."

"That can't be true!" Sofia shook her head. "Tell us it can't be true, Mr Cedric!"

"Or you could tell them about all the times you tried to steal their Amulets, so you could seize the throne." Wormwood told Cedric. "From the moment you arrived in the castle, by the way." He added to the girls.

"Enough, Wormwood!" Cedric yelled. "It's true, girls. Everything he said is true."

"Why?" Madeline asked.

"Because, my dear princesses, once I am king, everyone will finally see what a great sorcerer I truly am!" Cedric declared.

"I... we thought you were our friend." Sofia sighed.

"Well, it appears you were... wrong." Cedric retorted. "now, if you'll excuse me, I have a kingdom to overthrow!"

Cedric left the room, leaving Sofia and Madeline to process the information.

"I can't believe this." Madeline sighed. "All this time... he was never our friend."

"We have to go after him." Sofia declared. "Before he can take Enchancia."

"Just try and stop me." Madeline growled.

The two ran off after Cedric.

Outside, Cedric froze the coachman, and took the carriage for his own. Inside, Sofia and Madeline rushed over to a broomstick vendor.

Can we borrow this?" Sofia asked, picking up a broom.

"Of course." The vendor nodded. "It's a free sample."

"Thank you." Madeline smiled.

They both mounted the broom, and took it, yelping as they zoomed away.

Shortly after, Cedric neared Castle Enchancia.

"There it is, Wormy!" Cedric cheered. "My future castle! My destiny!"

Laughing madly, Cedric landed the carriage and rushed up the steps.

"Cedric." Baileywick greeted him. "Did you enjoy the Conjurers' Conference?"

"More than you can imagine, my good man." Cedric took off his school cloak. "Zippety-zap!" He froze Baileywick, then threw his cloak on him. "Now, take my cloak."

"He's put a spell on the steward!" One of two guards declared. "Stop him!"

"Not likely!" Cedric froze them both.

"This will be easier than we thought." Wormwood gloated.

"I should say so." Cedric agreed. "Now, to the throne room!"

Sofia and Madeline descended soon after. Sofia pulled the cloak off Baileywick.

"Baileywick!" Sofia gasped.

"No!" Madeline gaped. "We have to hurry!"

They flew the broom inside.

Meanwhile, Cedric had reached the throne room, where the rest of the royal family were.

"I wouldn't get too comfy in those thrones if I were you!" Cedric cackled.

"They're not really as comfortable as you think, Cedric." Miranda declared.

"Oh, that's not what I mean." Cedric growled. "You are looking at the new king of Enchancia!"

The royal family burst out laughing.

"That's a good one, Mr Cedric!" James chuckled.

"Oh, king!" Roland guffawed.

"I believe the joke may be on you!" Cedric froze Roland. "There you are!" He froze Miranda. "Heads up!" Then James. "Freeze!" And finally, Amber. "Hold that pose!" Two guards came after him, but he froze them too. "Stay put!" He cackled in triumph. "Can you believe it, Wormy? At long, glorious last, I can seize the throne, and no-one can stop me!"

Cedric turned two flying horse statues into darker versions of themselves.

"Well, don't just stand there." Wormwood urged. "Seize!"

Sofia and Madeline flew into the throne room.

"He really did it." Sofia gasped, as Cedric moved their frozen family and their thrones away. "He froze everyone."

"And now for some redecorating!" Cedric raised his wand.

"The wand!" Madeline declared. "We've got to get his wand."

"Oh, yes. Much better!" Cedric smirked, as he waved his wand. "Thronius formius!"

A chair was turned into a new throne, with Raven-like accents.

"Your throne awaits, your majesty!" Wormwood declared.

Cedric sat in his throne.

"All hail me!" He cheered.

Sofia and Madeline flew by, and Madeline tried to take the wand, but failed.

"Don't do this, Mr Cedric!" Sofia called.

"Sofia? Madeline?" Cedric gasped.

"Quick, quick!" Wormwood urged. "Freeze them!"

"Stop where you are, Princesses!" Cedric pointed his wand at them.

"Mr Cedric, please!" Madeline pleaded. "Think about what you're doing!"

"Zap them!" Wormwood yelled.

"Mr Cedric, I know you don't want to do this." Sofia declared.

"This is all I want." Cedric said firmly.

"Then go ahead." Madeline said coldly. "Do it. We're not friends, so why shouldn't you?"

Cedric held his wand at him, then suddenly sighed, lowering it. Sofia took advantage of his hesitation to grab the wand.

"Got it!" She smiled.

"Nice move, Sof!" Madeline smiled.

"Cedric, what have you done?!" Wormwood yelled. He flew after the girls. "Give that back!"

"Never!" Sofia dodged him.

Sofia removed the Medusa Stone, and let it drop onto the floor, where it shattered in a burst of light. Instantly, all who were frozen unfroze, and the changes Cedric made to the room vanished.

"Yes!" Sofia and Madeline cheered.

"No!" Wormwood yelped.

Cedric attempted to flee.

"Guards, seize him!" Roland ordered.

The guards grabbed Cedric.

"Merlin's mushrooms." Wormwood groaned.

"You said it, Wormy." Cedric sighed.

"Here's his wand." Madeline declared, as she and Sofia landed by Roland.

Roland took the wand, then turned to face Cedric.

"Cedric, how could you?" Miranda asked.

"I never thought you were capable of something like this!" Roland admitted.

"You never thought I was capable of anything!" Cedric shot back. "No-one did! I remember the days when your father was the king, and my father was the royal sorcerer. Everything you did was the greatest thing ever, but did anyone noticed whenever I did something right? Nooo! They only noticed when I made a mistake!"

"And you made a lot of mistakes." Roland declared.

"So did you!" Cedric growled. "And so did my sister! But neither of you could do any wrong in our parents' eyes! I, on the other hand, could only do wrong." He fell to his knees. "All I ever wanted was for someone to finally see that I am a great man."

"Then maybe you should have tried doing something great." Roland said coldly. "Take him away!"

The guards dragged Cedric out of the room.

"Dad, this is a mistake." Sofia declared. "I don't think he really meant to do this."

"Seriously, Sof?" Madeline frowned.

"He could have zapped us with that spell, Maddie." Sofia pointed out. "He was pointing the wand right at us! But he didn't!"

"Sofia." Miranda sighed. "You always want to see the best in people. Sometimes, there is no 'best' to see."

Sofia walked away sadly.

"Wait up, Sof!" Madeline followed.

Meanwhile, back at Hexley Hall, Grimtrix was looking at his crystal ball, eeing his comrades succeed in their missions.

"Oh, joyous day!" He cheered. "Greylock has Rudistan. Ooh, and look! Von Rocha took Zumaria!" The crystal ball suddenly went blank. "I don't see Cedric. No surprise there. Come, Wriggly! An evil sorcerers work is never done!"

Wriggly jumped on Grimtrix's shoulder, and the two disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Back in Enchancia, Sofia and Madeline entered the dungeons. One cell had three criminals in it, while another had Cedric playing a harmonica, with a caged Wormwood beside him.

"Hello, Mr Cedric." Sofia said coldly.

"Oh." Cedric put down the harmonica. "What are you two doing here?"

"We're really mad at you." Madeline frowned. "You lied to us, tried to steal from us..."

"But the worst thing you did-" Sofia started.

"I know, I know." Cedric sighed. "I tried to take over the kingdom."

"No." Sofia said quietly. "The worst thing you did was say we weren't friends. Because I know that's not true."

"Are you sure about that, Sof?" Madeline frowned.

"You helped us save Royal Prep." Sofia told Cedric. "You helped us beat Princess Ivy. You even let Morgana catch you so we could get away. Only a great sorcerer can do those things... and a great friend."

"I wouldn't bet on that." Madeline huffed,

"Sofia, Madeline, I'm... I'm so sorry." Cedric bowed his head in regret.

"An evil wizard's attacking the castle!" A guard suddenly called out. "Hurry!"

The dungeon guard raced off to help.

"It must be Grimtrix." Cedric realised.

"We've got to go, Maddie." Sofia urged.

"No argument." Maddie threw one last glare at Cedric before following.

"Excellent!" Wormwood smirked. "Grimtrix will get us out of here!"

"No, Wormy" Cedric picked up his cage. "We will get ourselves ut of here."

"How?" Wormwood asked.

Cedric threw the cage onto the floor, smashing it open.

"What are you doin-oh!" Wormwood yelped, as he was broken free.

"Get the keys!" Cedric urged.

"Right, I'll... I'll get the keys." Wormwood said, partly dazed.

Wormwood flew over to where the keys to the cells were hanging and brought them to Cedric, ignoring the whistles of the criminals as he flew past. Cedric took the keys and unlocked his cell, and the two raced out of the dungeon.

Up in the throne room, Grimtrix had already frozen the royal family.

"Not that I've frozen the royal family, where, oh where is King Cedric?" He wondered.

Sofia and Madeline rushed into the room.

"Grimtrix!" They yelled.

"Why, hello, Princess Sofia. Princess Madeline." Grimtrix smirked. "Lovely to see you again. Now, goodbye!"

Grimtrix tried to zap the girls, but they held up a shield. The shield blocked the attack, but the force knocked them down. As they got back up, Cedric and Wormwood entered.

"Grimtrix!" Cedric called.

"Ah, Cedric, there you are!" Grimtrix smiled. "Now, all you have to do is zap the Princesses, and the kingdom is yours!" He handed Cedric his sceptre. "Greatness awaits, King Cedric."

Cedric pointed the sceptre at the girls.

"Mr Cedric, no." Sofia pleaded.

"I knew it." Madeline glared at Cedric. But they were both surprised when Cedric smiled at them.

"The zap's on you, Grimtrix!" Cedric hit Grimtrix instead, freezing them. He then froze Wriggly as she leapt off Roland, causing her to drop to the floor.

"Mr Cedric, you did it!" Sofia hugged. "Thank you!"

"That's what friends are for." Cedric smiled.

"I shouldn't have doubted you." Madeline admitted. "Either of you."

"Now, let's unfreeze the others!" Cedric declared. "Get ready. Grimtrix should unfreeze too."

Cedric removed the crystal from the sceptre and dropped it on the ground. It shattered, breaking the spell.

"Guards, seize that sorcerer!" Sofia ordered.

Two guards grabbed Grimtrix, while another got Cedric.

"Not Mr Cedric." Madeline pointed out. "He saved us."

"Why would you do such a dreadfully noble thing?" Grimtrix asked.

"Because, unlike you, he is a truly great sorcerer." Sofia smiled.

Grimtrix was lead away, as was Wriggly.

Later, Cedric was on his knees before the royal family, and so was Wormwood.

"...So very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very sorry!" Cedric apologised. "And it won't happen again?"

"I appreciate the apology, Cedric." Roland declared, holding Cedric's wand. "But it doesn't change what you did."

"But then he saved us from Grimtrix." Madeline pointed out.

"Yes, and that is why he's not locked up." Roland nodded. "But how can I let him be the Royal Sorcerer again? How are we ever supposed to trust him?"

"Dad, when Madeline and I first got to the castle, Amber did some things that weren't so nice." Sofia recalled. "But we gave her a second chance."

"And ever since then, she's been the best second sister either of us could hope for." Madeline smiled.

"Oh, girls..." Amber beamed.

"We should give Mr Cedric a second chance." Sofia urged. "Maybe next time, we can all be a little nicer to him."

"I agree." Miranda nodded. "From what Cedric told us about growing up, it sounds like he could've used a little more encouragement."

"Well, that is true." Roland sighed. "Growing up in the shadow of a famous father is no easy thing." He stood up. "Alright, Cedric. I will reinstate you as Royal Sorcerer on one condition."

"Anything, sire." Cedric pledged.

"I want you to remember that if it wasn't for Sofia and Madeline, you would have been on the next carriage out of the kingdom."

"Worry not, King Roland." Cedric rose up. "I shall never forgot all that the Princesses have done for me. I am forever in their debt, and yours."

"I believe this belongs to you." Roland handed Cedric's wand to Sofia, who, joined by Madeline passed it on to him.

"Thank you, your majesty." Cedric bowed. "And thank, Princess Sofia. Princess Madeline." He took back his wand.

"Hey, Mr Cedric!" James called. "Now that you've got your wand back, will you put on a magic show for us?"

"James!" Madeline hissed.

"Gladly, my Prince!" Cedric stood up. "I have some marvellous new spells. But I can't do a show without the help of my trusty apprentices."

"That's us!" Sofia and Madeline chanted.
