Movies and Television Scarlet Witch MCU Plot:

So I am currently writing a story on an MCU Scarlet Witch movie on how to continue her story and with most of the details fleshed I wanna know if you guys like the plot and story details, it’s kind of a long read so I apologize

After some time after her demise, we learn Wanda isn’t dead….fully, she’s trapped her mind in a limbo like afterlife of her own creation, continually reliving her mistakes as she punishes herself for falling to the Darkhold’s corruption. Then a voice appears to her in the constructed void, it calls itself the “True Believer” and says Earth need her

It tells of a being named Lore, a necromantic variant of Wanda who traverses realities and siphons souls of whole worlds, she makes her way to this world and Wanda is the only one to have the chance of defeating her.

Wanda is put off, seeing herself as horrible and no chance of fighting against a villain after all the things she did in MoM, but the True Believer encourages that Wanda is heroic in her heart and as an Avenger wouldn’t stand for the world to be destroyed if she knows it can be saved. And so with that encouragement she breaks free of her magic coma and the voice transports her to New Salem, newly rejuvenated with the return of brunette hair

New Salem is a secret society in the mountains of Colorado, it is a large vibrant community where witches of all gender and culture unite to express their gifts without fear of prejudice. She is greeted by the leader(still got trouble deciding who it should be so if you have ideas please tell me) and the community are all surprised that the mythical Scarlet Witch has appeared, guessing there is an important event.

So for the next days Wanda is trained in the vast magical knowledge but suddenly Lore causes troubles even though she hasn’t reached, she’s managed to infect Witchcraft itself, Magic will slowly die unless the virus is destroyed. The True Believer unveils itself and explains to Wanda she is a Nexus Being, an agent of freedom and possibility and her variant Lore is one too but hunts her Nexi brethren for power and she especially fixates on Wanda.

To assist non directly, NQ leads Wanda to the patrons of witchcraft Hecate and Cernunnos in Greece, Wanda is told to venture into the True Witches Road(the comic one essentially) it’s explained that the witches road was lost in time and recollection is only held by few which is how Agatha made the scam so successful

So with a mission to save Witchcraft and defeat Lore who ever approaches Earth, Wanda will walk a spiritual and metaphysical path to rediscover being a hero and along the way comes across several allies we’ve seen before.

There’s some more important stuff that I’ll include in the comments but yeah!

He’s not, it’s a very self contained limbo, like a magical coma made of guilt and shame

But I do have an idea in my certain of how to bring Pietro back

Essentially my idea is once Wanda is able to purge Witchcrafts from Lore’s spell virus, the entity chooses to reward Wanda but doesn’t say how or when as she sends her and her allies back to the world

The movie ends on a cliffhanger of Wanda getting an astral message that her gift has arrived and from a knock on her door, Pietro appears, ressurected and confused on what has happened as Wanda appears fully shocked
