I’m assuming the people would start to idolise the witches even more and expect more out of them. Some people might just look for forbidden magic like the ones Coco stumbled into.Or maybe the royal family’s public display of respect would pressure the witches in teaching them magic.
these are very reasonable assumptions, thank you
Witches maintain a balance by pretending they're equal to normal humans, they keep their numbers low and pretend as if the magic is not as powerful as it is. The king bowing to witches puts witches higher in the hierarchy, people seeing the magics power also shakes the balance.
this makes a lot of sense, thanks for explaining too!
I wonder why the great witch also bow to make it look even more equal? Any assumption?
I mean not bow to the king
the king bowed in gratitude for saving the civilians, the witches wouldn’t really have a reason to do the same gesture back
wait guys i’m like kind of sorta vaguely aware that the king bowing to the witches is bad but im kinda dumb and can someone explain it to me why exactly? ik they mentioned that the balance has been tipped but why is it unfavourable for the witches exactly?
