The Good Witch Azura is a series of fantasy novels that appears frequently in The Owl House. Written by Mildred Featherwhyle, the series is about a good witch named Azura, who fights for peace across magical lands. Currently, five volumes are known to exist along with a number of movies.
Background[]
The content of the novels focuses on the adventures of the title character, Azura, who embarks on magical quests fighting evil and bringing peace across enchanted lands. Based on what is seen on the cover/poster, there are two other characters, an old witch dressed in a red cloak and fluffy little doglike creature (similarities to Eda and King).
Luz is a huge fan of the series and owns a copy. Her first Azura book was a gift from her father before he passed away. Since then, she treasures this book as it was the last thing her father ever gave her. Azura becomes her inspiration to become a witch when she arrives on the Boiling Isles. During her stay, Luz makes a lot references about the Isles to the characters and stories in her novel. In "Witches Before Wizards", Luz believed her arrival on the Isles had a reason and that she had a potential destiny like Azura. Eda dislikes the series as she considers its "flowery" contents insulting to witches.
It is revealed in "Lost in Language" that Amity is a fan as well and owns four of the books, which she keeps hidden in her secret hideaway in the library. She even drew a doodle of herself dressed as Azura on the front cover of her diary. By the end of the episode, Luz lends Amity her fifth Azura book as a way of apologizing for reading her diary. "Through the Looking Glass Ruins" further reveals that the Azura books became available on the Boiling Isles after a crate of them somehow washed up on the shores along with other human trash (according to a crystal ball newspage).
While the character is not directly mentioned in "Sense and Insensitivity", the story Luz writes has a protagonist called "Luzura", suggesting Luz is putting herself in Azura's role. She vehemently objects when King "edits" the book in a way that results in Luzura's brutal death.
It is revealed in "Any Sport in a Storm" that Amity's copies of Azura were acquired by Tibbles through leaks in the water between the Human and Demon realms caused by titan's blood. With Mattholomule editing over the author's photo to make her appear like a witch instead of human, he attempted to profit off the series but to his disappointment, Amity was the only buyer.
Characters[]
- Azura: The main protagonist of the series, who is a warrior witch of peace.
- Elderly Witch: An ally who accompanies Azura on her quests.
- Dog Creature: Another ally of Azura.
- Gildersnake: A massive serpent who serves as an enemy to Azura.
- Hecate: A villain, who is Azura's rival and later friend and lover in the fifth volume.
- Malin Gael: The mysterious soothsayer.
- Villanous Lucy: A former friend who betrayed Azura for the greater good.
Trivia[]
- Azura and Luz are both Spanish words. Luz means "light" while Azura is the Spanish word for "sky blue".
- The character Hecate is the Greek goddess of sorcery and necromancy. She can be depicted as having three faces as she can see the past, the present and future. While the book presents her as a villain she was a benevolent and protective goddess bringing blessings and prosperity to those who worshipped her. This is fitting as Amity is the Latin word for friendship, yet she begins the series as an antagonist to Luz and much like Hecate, ends up becoming friends with their rival and become a couple.
