Staffel 2, Folge 2
Diana meets the elegant and intelligent Mary Sidney, a wealthy alchemist, in the hopes of furthering the search for a mentor for Diana’s witchcraft. Mary warms to Diana instantly but reluctantly tells her that she cannot involve herself in creature business. William Cecil puts further pressure on Matthew to torture an innocent Tom Caldwell, a witch suspected of treason, in order to extract a confession. Diana and Matthew are forced to pay fealty to Andrew Hubbard – the vampire ruler of London – who is unnerved by their sudden arrival in the City. They are unsure as to whether he can be trusted. Diana convinces Susanna to help her, and she is introduced to Goody Alsop, the head of a local coven and a powerful witch. To Diana’s shock, Goody Alsop tells her that they are both weavers, the rarest breed of witches who create spells rather than learning them; things begin to fall into place for her. Meanwhile, Matthew grows more at home in his old life and goes on a night of raucous gambling with Kit. Kit, privy to Matthew and Diana’s secret timewalking, convinces Matthew to embrace his old self and execute Tom Caldwell in order to allay Cecil’s suspicions that there is something fundamentally compromised about Matthew’s loyalties.
Matthews Dilemma vergrößerts sich. Auf der einen Seite sitzt ihm die Krone im Nacken, eine angebliche Verschwörung der Hexen aufzudecken, auf der anderen Seite fordert der Vampir-Herrscher Londons seine Loyalität ein. Sein
Verbindung zu Diana macht es dieser zudem nicht einfacher, eine Hexe zu finden, die sie in ihren Kräften unterweisen soll. Hilfe findet sie schließlich bei der mächtigsten Hexe Englands. (Text: JB)
