#also Hooty is too suspicious to not have a more major role in the story

[edolin]

Okay, so I haven't gotten this into a show in YEARS, but the Owl House has a very special place in my heart for many reasons. Enough of a special place that I have theories about some plot points!

So, my first theory, jumping onto the 'Belos is a human' train, what if Belos, like Luz, came to the Boiling Isles through the portal door? Building off of that, what if King isn't as disillusioned as he's portrayed, but was actually the king of demons before Belos showed up?

Think about it; in the first episode, Eda goes on this whole thing about how King lost his crown of power, but the crown turned out to be one of those cardboard Burger Queen crowns. But what if she wasn't entirely wrong? What if King was the previous ruler of the Boiling Isles, Belos shows up, breaks his crown (the broken horn, anybody?), and with it broken, maybe his memories were broken as well, but the only thing he was able to hang on to was him being the King?

In short; King was the original king of demons, Belos showed up, learned magic, overthrew King, stole his crown/broke his horn, and made himself emperor while King lost his memory.

My second theory; Belos, or one of his people (the masked baddie maybe?) is the one sending the letters. Think about it; the people of the Boiling Isles don't even know what a high five is, or what several human metaphors mean, and Eda had no idea what a summer camp was. Belos (going on the 'he's a human' theory again) does. As an older human, he knows what a mortgage is, summer camp, and likely has connections in the human realm he can send messages to. Amity likes Luz way too much and is too much of a blushing, rambling mess to be knowingly lying to Luz's mom like that. My vote says that either Belos, masked baddie, or this new Gwendolyn character is writing the letters.

My third theory; Belos is trying to 'unify' the human and demon realm by pulling the Titan into the human realm, thus bringing magic with him to take it over. Like, that's a big ass portal he's building, y'all. And he's still building it. Or, alternatively, he's trying to bring magic to the human realm so he can go over and be the emperor of both realms. Either way, super exciting to see where that's going.

Theory four; this Gwendolyn character seems way too interesting to just be a throwaway name. I'm betting she's working for Belos and will act as a motherly figure for Amity so that Gwen can trick Amity into spying for the Owl gang. Like, let's face it, Amity's own mother forced her to dye her hair to match the twins. That's pretty fucked up, but that's a conversion for later. Amity doesn't really have a mother figure in her life, the closest possibly being Eda after Understanding Willow (depends on whether or not Amity regularly went to the Owl House after that). Amity is going to need/want a parent figure to understand her and listen to her, guiding her. But she likely won't know until it's too late what's going on. Or, and I don't know which is worse, maybe Gwendolyn IS Amity's mom, and after the fight with Belos being broadcasted all over the Isles, wants to be more involved with her kids lives? Like, maybe Gwen is the mysterious masked henchman at the season one finale and is going to trick Amity, Ed, and Em into spying on the Owl gang.

I don't know, there's a lot of different ways this story can go, and I'm super excited to be able to watch where it leads!

Also, if season two doesn't have Amity busting the front door of the Owl House down and demanding to see if Luz is okay after the Belos fight, I'm gonna be upsettie spaghetti. But that's just me
