The Great Ring is an important magical object exclusive to season 2 of the W.I.T.C.H. TV series. It is a gigantic ring that towers over the Palace of Meridian and is used to create a huge fold that splits the castle in half between dimensions.[1]

Plot

Prince Phobos created the ring in order to invade Kandrakar with his army, enough to get through the fold. Despite this threat, this was a crucial part of the Guardians' plan to have Phobos forfeit his power by stepping in Kandrakar, exposing his broken oath to not hold the power of Meridian and Zamballa for himself.[1]

The people of Meridian were forced to build the Great Ring over the palace. Phobos activated the Ring and a fold was created allowing a dozens of Lurdens and the Knights of Vengeance to cross over.[1]

Cedric used the Great Ring in order to invade Earth since he has grown to the size of Godzilla before he was crushed by the fully-evolved Guardians.[2]

When Elyon returned back to Meridian with all her powers back, it is unclear of what becomes of the Great Ring towering over the Palace. It might be destroyed by her magic later, although it is clearly still present during the concluding scene shown when Will said that Elyon has been returned to full power.[2]

Powers

The Great Ring can create large folds between dimensions. Its power supply comes from the Mage Ring and Blunk's Tonga Tooth.[1] In order to be used the talismens had to be manipulated using the power of the scepter (fueled by the hearts of Meridian and Zamballa) that was in the possesion of Phobos and later Cedric at the time the Great Ring was in use.
