Once, there lived a witch far away from the kingdom called Laraeia. Her name was Aoi and she lived alone in the woods in a small cottage where she practiced her magic. People in town hated and avoided witches for they were thought to be bad creatures who seek destruction and put curses on their enemies. But, Aoi was different.She's kind and helpful to anyone.Unfortunately, none of the townspeople would believe in her even if it were true. One day while she was strolling through town using her broom, she saw a man setting a house on fire so she chased after him but the fire quickly spread from one house to another and the villagers panicked and shouted for help but before she could cast her spell, the townspeople blamed her for what was happening and they threw rocks at her. Although they were mean to her, she still helped put down the fire.Luckily, no one got hurt but the townspeople didn't even thank her. They said it was her fault and she felt guilty so she stopped the fire.Aoi did not say a single word to them but a young man named Robin stood up and said that Aoi wasn't the arsonist and that she even helped to put out the fire.He said that they should thank and apologize to her.Hearing this,Aoi felt happy and a tear fell down from her eye. It is said that when a witch cries, the curse casted on her will be broken and soon after the incident, a rainbow appeared in front of their eyes like a miracle just happened. Who knows what the curse is? Maybe you do :)
