Revision as of 04:06, 2 September 2019
"Full Circle" is the thirteenth episode of Princess Gwenevere and the Jewel Riders. It is the second part of the season one's finale, continued on from "Revenge of the Dark Stone". "Full Circle" was originally planned to be the entire show's final episode.[1] Its international titles include Catalan "Cercle tancat", German "Freunde in der Not" ("Friends in Need"), French "Les Nouveaux magiciens" ("The New Wizards"), Portuguese "O círculo completo", Russian "Полный круг", Serbo-Croat "Pun krug", and Spanish "El circulo completo". It is one of the episodes retold in the Panini sticker album.
The evil Lady Kale has used anti-magic and has taken over the Crystal Palace, the Crown Jewels, and Avalon itself. Princess Gwenevere and her friends must find a way to reach Merlin before Kale can find and destroy him. Now depowered, the Jewel Riders need to restore the magic of their Enchanted Jewels by performing the Circle of Friendship ceremony, and then enter wild magic in search for Merlin in the last hope could defeat Kale and save Avalon.

Plot summary
After gaining power over the kingdom of Avalon, the evil Queen Kale tries to find a way to control the stolen Crown Jewels to rule all the magic and reign unchallenged for all time. However, her attempts to open the Jewel Box go in vain and just summon a hologram of Merlin as they are still tuned to him. Kale realizes she will never be able to use their magic until the wizard is removed from the setting and she can take his place. Enraged, she vows to find Merlin and to finish him off.
Meanwhile, the Jewel Riders are hiding in Merlin's house (it is not explained how did they escape). Here they try to find a way to restore the magic of their Enchanted Jewels so they can storm the Crystal Palace. Tamara realizes that she can still hear the baby animals, so there must be some magic left in their jewels. The girls remember that the Friendship Ring is the most magical place in all of Avalon (which they learnt from Morgana), and they think that they can recharge their jewels there. Archie warns them that they might never be able to talk with their animal friends again, but they decide to take their only chance to save Avalon. Tamara proposes they would be going to search for Merlin within the Wild Magic and bring him home. The girls agree on her plan and they all take on pledge to bring back Merlin and, as Fallon says, stop Kale "once and for all". They go to do it.
At the Friendship Ring, after a lengthy flashback of every tender moment between the girls and their bonded animals as "A Friend in You" plays, the Jewel Riders and their animal friends all get their jewels recharged. Now all they have to do is find Merlin, but he is somewhere inaccessible by Travel Trees. Tamara remembers that she could summon Kit the prism fox. Kit arrives with some friends, the gliders, and they all fly up to Cloud City, where the Jewel Riders find Merlin still trapped in the bubble ball.
Merlin tells the Jewel Riders he knows Kale is looking for him and so they have little time. The girls have to use the Crystal Palace, which he explains is actually the most powerful Enchanted Jewel in Avalon, to release its magic. But before they get any detailed instructions, a portal opens and a projection of Kale appears through it. The witch fires her anti-magic at the Jewel Riders, but Merlin draws the anti-magic to him as he manages to use hers anti-magic to free himself from his magic bubble.
Merlin fight back, sending a wave of wild magic that catches Kale off-guard. It pulls his key to him, but she grabs the key and holds on as the wizard pulls it through the portal and towards him. The key, held in the magic power struggle between the two of them, transforms into Merlin's staff. As their magical duel intensifies, Merlin tells his students he will hold Kale long enough for them to activate the Palace, and the Jewel Riders go through a closing portal back to the dark Avalon.
The Jewel Riders make their way back to the Jewel Keep and decide to re-tune the Jewel Box's setting by forming an Enchanted Jewel circle. There is big blast and the triumphant Kale shows up with Merlin's staff right when the girls complete casting their spell ("once again you've done my job for me") and breaks the Jewel Riders' Enchanted Jewel Circle. She states Merlin is gone now, and steps into a dark matrix formed by the Crown Jewels. This does not have the effect she anticipated, as the Crown Jewels hold her in place helpless while the great good magic of the Crystal Palace goes into action — Kale shrinks, Merlin's staff explodes in her hands, and she dissolves into magic dust that is sent into the Wild Magic. The Crown Jewels fall back into the Jewel Box, and the Palace flares to life with a bright crystalline light as the Jewel Keep fountains out good magic into the sky as the dark magic retreats, sunshine returns to Avalon, and everything is returned to normal.
In the throne room, Queen Anya and King Jared celebrate the victory over evil and give thanks to their daughter Princess Gwenevere and the other Jewel Riders in the name of all of Avalon. Merlin appears to them to announce the end of their Jewel Quest, but the joyful mood is cut short when he reveals he can not return to Avalon since his jewel — which was on his staff — has been destroyed. He explains that the Crown Jewels have been tuned to the Jewel Riders, who control their magic now. Merlin says his parting worlds to them and vanishes. Back in the Jewel Keep, the dweasels decide to take the Dragon Wagon for themselves now that Kale is gone.
Panini sticker album narration
(Translated from French)
The Jewel Riders have finally managed to find the seven Crown Jewels, yet unfortunately Kale was able to seize it. And she even managed to take control of the magical powers of the Jewel Riders' own stones. But it is in vain, as Merlin reminds her that only in his hands the seven jewels might allow one to rule Avalon!
To reign supreme over Avalon, Kale has transformed its inhabitants into statues and so the Jewel Riders can not hope for their help. But just when Kale was doing her magic, Tamara's little friends had been hiding in a closet. The magic of their stones is therefore intact!
Will it be enough to restore energy to the jewels of Starla, Tamara, Fallon and their four-legged friends? There is only one place where it can happen: the Circle of Friendship, that is, the place where the friends and their unicorns take possession of their magical power!
Now, to fight Kale, Starla, Tamara and Fallon have to find Merlin, but none of them can travel in wild magic without a guide. But, wait, someone can help: Kit, the Prism Fox! The animal responds immediately to the call of the three girls, and arrives with a cohort of funny flying creatures. Kit knows where to find Merlin and the adventure begins.
Kit accompanies her friends in wild magic, then he leaves them. Our friends meet a few merry.... talking clouds. Then comes Merlin, who tells Starla to activate the magic of the biggest Magic Jewel, the Crystal Palace; and put an end to Kale's magic.
But someone else has also decided to explore the wild magic to find Merlin. It is Kale, determined to get rid of her enemy and take Avalon as her own forever. Merlin will take care of the latter as soon as she arrives.
Pushed by Merlin to waste no time, Starla, Tamara and Fallon return to the Crystal Palace. What a dismal atmosphere reigns there, with as in its beautiful gardens overgrown by thrown trees. But they do not wait and enter the castle!
Rufus and Twig are the guardians of Merlin's box and the huge diamond that is the heart of the Crystal Palace. Seeing the arrival of the Jewel Riders, they clear off. Now, Starla, Tamara and Fallon concentrate all the energies of their stones. The invincible magic of the Great Magic Jewel is active. That is when Kale emerges...
But nothing can stop the tornado of good magic, and with that Kale is vanquished and sent off to the wild magic. Then the sun shines again on Avalon and its inhabitants happily return to life!
The Crystal Palace regains all its magnificence, under the protection of the Jewel Riders, who can always count on the power of good magic on the wise advice of Merlin. They will be friends forever!
