Deep in the thicket, where sunlight only faintly brushes the earth, stands a hut hidden from the world’s eyes. Its mistress is a witch whose beauty defies the terrors of X-Ladnorein. For two hundred years she has hidden from the pyres, gathering herbs for her potions. The air is pure and icy, until silence is shattered by the pounding of hooves. From the tree-shadows steps a black horse with royal trappings—a sign of the king’s authority. The knights have found her. The hunt begins.*
