"Don't you dare do this you fools! You will greatly regret this!" the woman screamed.
The nun and the priest, both leading the mob, flinched at the comment. Still, they pressed on.
As the townspeople murmured enchantments, the nun shouted an order.
"Quickly, light the cross! Burn her to the ground!"
The woman struggled, trying to break free of the ropes that bound her to the cross. To no avail, she soon grew limp. For a moment, she looked beautiful. Her red hair was draped across her shoulders, and her eyes were closed. Her face was strained, but you could see the great beauty she once had. That peace was cut short the moment the cross was lit. She glared upwards at the crowd as her look of peace slowly transitioned into a deep snarl.
"You are all pathetic fools!" she cried out.
Getting no response from the townspeople, her snarl morphed into a wretched smile with no hint of kindness or mercy.
"I shall now set upon you my final curse!" this brought upon a much more pleasing reaction to the witch.
As the young nun reassured the townspeople of their safety, the witch went on.
"That is right my children! Every one hundred years, a fragment of my soul will be born into your own brethren! That child will live with my curse, hated and isolated! That child shall be my vessel and bring upon a new age in which I rule once more! Wait for that day, my children, for the revelation of my rebirth shall come!"
She began laughing. Her hateful laugh was burned into the minds of all those who witnessed it, and perished along with the witches ashes.
