In W.I.T.C.H. season 1 episode 11 titled "The Stone of Threbe," we see the Guardians of the Veil – Will, Irma, Taranee, Cornelia, and Hay Lin – facing a new challenge. The girls are celebrating Hay Lin's birthday when they receive an unexpected visit from a woman named Lillian Hale. Lillian claims to be a paranormal researcher and begs the girls to let her join their group so that she can study them and their mystical abilities.
Initially, the girls are wary of the stranger, but Lillian's persuasive nature and charm convince them to let her join their group temporarily. Meanwhile, a powerful and ancient artifact – the Stone of Threbe – has been discovered and falls into the hands of the nefarious sorcerer Cedric. Cedric has been trying to harness the powerful stone's magic to unlock a portal that will allow him to rule over the world and destroy the Guardians of the Veil.
The Guardians of the Veil, unaware of Cedric's evil plans, decide to investigate the stone themselves and discover that Cedric has already started creating chaos using the stone's power. While investigating the artifact, the girls are met by the evil sorcerer who goes on the attack. The Guardians put up a brave fight but are ultimately outmatched by Cedric's power. They realize that they need to find a new strategy to defeat him.
Meanwhile, Lillian has been capturing footage of the Guardians' powers and analyzing it through her equipment. She shows her findings to her business partner, Harold, who she has left in charge of her research lab. Harold recognizes the true potential of the Guardians' abilities and betrays Lillian by teaming up with Cedric. Together, they hatch a plan to lure the Guardians into a trap by using their own powers against them.
The Guardians of the Veil aren't ready for the sudden attack and find themselves trapped. They try to use their powers to break free but to no avail. As a last resort, Will takes a bold step and uses her mystical connection to her teammates to break the spell. The girls gather their strength and combine their powers into a dazzling burst of light that frees them from their imprisonment.
With their powers united, the Guardians set out to defeat Cedric and Harold. They confront the duo in a final showdown that tests their combined might and resilience. In the end, they are able to overcome their enemies and destroy the Stone of Threbe, putting an end to Cedric's plans.
The episode ends with the Guardians, having overcome the danger, reflecting on the events that transpired. Lillian, having learned her lesson, decides to stop her research as she realizes her actions could have caused irreparable harm to the Guardians. The girls return to their normal lives but know that they must stay vigilant for any future threats that may come their way.
