In ‘His Butler, Encouraging,’ a mysterious figure investigates the witches and werewolves. Sieglinde completes the Ultimate Magic but collapses from exhaustion. After waking, she asks Wolfram if she can go outside, though he reminds her of her restrictions.

Ciel later visits and invites her out. In the basement, she explains miasma and its role in empowering werewolves. However, Sebastian reveals the truth: miasma is actually poison, and Sieglinde has unknowingly created the deadliest toxin. She learns that her knowledge and beliefs were based on lies and manipulation.

Black Butler Season 5 Episode 8 will adapt chapter 98 and may reveal the truth about Sieglinde Sullivan’s upbringing and her connection to the village. As her fabricated reality unravels, the episode will likely examine how and why the poisonous gas—disguised as miasma—was created.

The motives of those who manipulated Sieglinde could be exposed, revealing the larger conspiracy surrounding the werewolves and witches. This may become the turning point that changes Sieglinde’s decisions, especially in relation to Ciel and Sebastian.
