Chrestomanci/Heartwarming

Charmed Life

 * Chrestomanci, the most powerful magic-user in the world, has been . But even they're not enough to turn the tide, so Chrestomanci and his allies put all their effort into summoning . The look that crosses Chrestomanci's face highlights just how deep their relationship is.

Witch Week

 * In Witch Week, a handful of kids in a boarding school classroom discover they are witches. This is a problem, as the world they are in still practices witch hunts and burnings. Chrestomanci (a powerful enchanter) explains that this world shouldn't even exist, and should be merged back into the world it originally belonged. One child, Charles, contests this and becomes extremely self-centered about his magic, seemingly enough to be seen as the start of a career as an evil warlock, when he discovers this would mean he would lose his magic. In the end, in a rather moving scene, he's the one that ends up instigating the merging in a change of heart, but loses his memories before he could apologize to Chrestomanci. Chrestomanci thanks him anyway in the newly united world (though Charles has no idea who he is) before leaving himself.
