So the hag has Elyon.
It's worse. That hag is Nerissa.
[shocked] No!
Impossible!
You are absolutely certain?
[Yan Lin nods]
Okay, see I didn't bring my who's who from Kandrakar, so Nerissa is...?
As you know, you are not the first Guardians. Decades ago there were five others. Cassidy, Halinor, Yan Lin, Kadma... and Nerissa.
They were C.H.Y.K.N.? Wow, I'm so glad we're W.I.T.C.H.
[voiceover] [as the camera pans across W.I.T.C.H, the scene transitions to one showing the former Guardians] Nerissa led the Guardians as Keeper of the Heart of Kandrakar, as you do Will. But I sensed [Nerissa holds up the Heart and sees it glow through a shot of her eye] the power of the Heart was corrupting Nerissa. To save her soul, [The Heart is shown floating and given to Cassidy] I took the Heart from her and gave it to Cassidy. [Nerissa, shocked, walks away] But Nerissa became obsessed with her lost power. [Nerissa and Cassidy are atop Mount Thanos] After begging and pleading, she demanded Cassidy return the Heart. Cassidy refused.
[Nerissa casts a lightning bolt at the cliff, and Cassidy falls to her death, Nerissa is shocked by her actions]
[voiceover] [Nerissa runs across the cold of the mountain] Devastated, Nerissa fled. [An energy cell appears around Nerissa in a cave inside Mount Thanos] But I imprisoned her. [scene shows Yan Lin, The Oracle and Halinor standing outside her cell] Hoping that she would redeem herself [Nerissa lifts her head up] by facing her guilt. I fear [Nerissa's youthful face changes into the old Nerissa] I may have aired.
[The scene transitions to present day, in Kandrakar]
When Phobos' reign on Meridian forced us to raise the Veil, we could no longer watch over her.
She must have escaped, and gone into hiding.
On Meridian. Perhaps a portal opened on Mount Thanos, allowing her escape.
Nerissa is a greater threat now, than she was then. Every world has a source of mystic energy, like the Heart of Kandrakar. Elyon was the Heart of Meridian. With her power, Nerissa's might equals the five of yours...combined.
Right! Cause otherwise, way too easy.
At least, she doesn't know we're on to her. If we head to Meridian now, we can still take her down.
Hmmm, a wise plan.
