In a partnership that seems doomed from the start, things go from bad to worse when Emilio announces in the middle of theceremony that he hates magic and doesn’t want to be the Royal Witch at all. A fight breaks out. Everyone watches in horror asthe two boys, meant to protect their country, brawl it out on the palace floor.
