In Little Witch Academia series, Ursula is attempting to make Akko say all the
**_Seven Words of Arcturus_** that supposedly would reawaken the Triskelion.

What is the Triskelion, and what does it do?

What is the Triskelion supposed to do?


My theory on what might the Triskellion be starts with the opening. The
opening starts off with Akko, Lotte and Sucy holding hands leading to spiral
formation to the Seven Words of Arcturus till finally a tree which I call
Yggdrasil, the world tree. In mythology, Yggdrasil was this very powerful and
ancient tree that held the nine realms of the Norse Mythology. As you probably
read, think about this, nine worlds and the Nine Olde Witches. Probably the
Nine Olde Witches and Little Witch Academia as a world has influence of the
Norse.

The ‘ready for battle’ sequence. All of Akko’s friends, her teammates, Amanda
and her team, Diana and Akko herself but before I talked about Akko, I want to
talk about the ley lines. If you look closer, the ley lines had what looked to
be branches or roots which connects to Yggdrasil. Why is that? Well, the
answer is that what we are looking at are the roots of the world tree itself.
The Ley lines are the Roots of the World Tree, Yggdrasil. So, all that meant
is that all the Witches and the Faeries are taking in this magical energy from
one of the most ancient forces in the universe. Also, could this mean the
world where Akko is having her adventures is located at one of the nine
realms. However, this presents a case on what’s happening to Yggdrasil.

We understand that magic came from somewhere, probably Yggdrasil but at some
point, the magic is getting less which foretells a frightening conclusion, the
world tree is dying. If that happens, all the worlds including Earth would be
destroyed without Yggdrasil holding them together. That might be the purpose
of Chariot. By reviving the Seven Words of Arcturus, they can revive Yggdrasil
who will in turn support the worlds once more.

Therefore, the Grand Triskellion might be a new seed to give birth to a new
Yggdrasil.

In Episode 15, it's explained that the Triskelion contains the "last vestiges"
of Yggdrasil, the Great Tree, whose roots once covered the world and allowed
magic to flourish. These vestiges contain "world-altering magic", allowing
whoever wields them to change the world around them as they see fit, so long
as they have the Shiny Rod and have awakened all seven Words.

Ursula's plan is to use this world-altering magic to reverse the worldwide
magical decline and usher in a new Golden Age of Magic. In the final episode,

> Akko succeeds in doing so with help from Diana and her friends, reviving
> Yggdrasil in the process.
