Willow – Season 1 Episode 6

Published: Jul 12 2024

Episode 6 of Willow kicks off with Airk being beckoned by The Crone, yet he shuns the temptation and opts to flee. His path, however, leads him straight into an unending desert. Undeterred, he trudges forward, determined to find his way back to the Kingdom.

Meanwhile, Willow and Kit's fate is far from Airk's lackadaisical capture. After the unexpected Troll ambush in the previous episode, they are now imprisoned in a labyrinthine abode, adorned with dangling cages and chambers etched into the rock facade. Separated from the rest, they discover that Christian Slater portrays Allagash, Madmartigan's friend who holds the key to his whereabouts.

Willow – Season 1 Episode 6 1

Two Trolls emerge, oblivious to their captives' identities, even mislabeling Kit as "nice." Strangely, the other Trolls seem to have ignored the rest of their makeshift group, who are now gazing up at their stronghold from afar.

One Troll, Lord Sarris, makes his appearance to confront Kit, who jests while perched on a torture chair. Their real target is Elora, but had they been vigilant at the party, they would've spotted her nearby. However, they needn't fret, as she's now within Troll City, Skellin, navigating past their lax security.

Elora's wand malfunctions, drawing the Trolls' attention, while Scorpia decides to depart, realizing Jade has her own family now and no longer needs her companionship. Concurrently, Kit and Allagash manage to liberate themselves, as the Trolls had left them unsupervised.

Disguised, Graydon is separated from Boorman, Elora, and Jade, while Allagash, Kit, and Willow strive to reunite with them. But those disguises are fleeting, as they shed them mere moments later. Why? It's a mystery, but let's press on.

In the midst of navigating a rickety wooden pathway, Elora misplaces her wand, while Kit's group decides to embark on a quest to find Madmartigan. Allagash cunningly provides a false name to deter the Trolls from pursuing the true hero.

In the end, the disparate characters converged once again, indifferent to Graydon's plight in the depths. Allagash and Boorman clashed, only to be interrupted by Kit's swift intervention. The group stumbled upon a concealed portal guarded by a riddle, which Elora deftly solved. Behind the door lay a chamber laden with riches, sparking a ferocious squabble between Boorman and Allagash. Meanwhile, Kit ventured inward and discovered a sword. Its hilt trembled as Madmartigan's voice pleaded for aid, but the entire structure began to crumble.

Amidst the chaos, Allagash vanished, taking the Lux with him, leaving no one to inquire about Graydon's whereabouts. To their surprise, Graydon emerged unscathed, his arrival barely noticed as the group valiantly fought off the advancing Trolls. With reinforcements looming, they fled, leaving Allagash to delay their pursuers.

Kit, who had been tolerable for the day, suddenly revealed her true nature, confronting Elora with envy and resentment over being overshadowed. Then, without warning, a boulder fell from above, narrowly missing Kit but trapping her beneath an orange expanse. Desperately, Elora attempted to harness her magic to save her friend.

Meanwhile, Airk wandered aimlessly through the desert until he found himself at the familiar starting point. He crept into the city, only to be drawn by a strange voice. Following the echoes, he stumbled upon a girl imprisoned behind iron bars. Her pleas for release filled the air, begging Airk to set her free.
