An elderly man with a long white beard emerged from a room. "Well, well, what's all this?" he curiously asked.
"This is Ella," Sephiroth explained. "She appeared near the forest and remembers very little about herself. We wondered if her amnesia might be magically induced."
"Hmm. It could be!" Merlin said. "Ella, my dear, do you remember anything from before you came to be here?"
“Nice to meet you sir,” Ella said politely. She showed him the locket and the photo of the mysterious guy inside. “This is the only clue I have about my memories. Other than that, I don’t remember anything.”
"I see, I see." Merlin looked at the locket. "Well, I don't remember seeing him around here, or in any of the worlds I've visited. Let's see what we can do."
He brought out his wand and chanted some magic words as he touched it to Ella's forehead and then to the locket.
Ella’s eyes glowed slightly as Merlin’s magic began to unlock her memories. The glow faded a few moments later. “The photo of the guy is Ryou Bakura and he’s my boyfriend. And I also remember that I’m a vegetarian,” she said, getting tears in her eyes.
“That’s awesome,” Huey said excitedly. “Do you remember anything else?” Dewey asked.
"It's certainly something, at least!" Merlin said. But he sobered as he added, "The magic binding your memories is very strong. It took a great deal of magical energy just to release that much."
"It would take a powerful sorcerer to cast a spell like that," Sephiroth remarked. "Someone on Merlin's level. Or my own."
“Do you have any idea as to who could have done this?” Ella asked.
“Uncle Donald, I don’t think Sephiroth did this to Ella,” Huey said. “I have to agree,” Dewey said. “Think it could have been Madam Mim? Or maybe Maleficent?”

Sephiroth stood by with folded arms, watching.

"Maybe it even was you," Donald retorted.
"It was not," Sephiroth said.
