Her antagonisticly blonde long hair was soaked with oil when the drops of it ran down her face. Her long wet eyelashs sat over her fierce emerld eyes like a priceless crown below her thin in width eyebrows. Her long face with sharpe jaw and flate nose gleamed with agression and glinted scornfulness.

"So either, thee, Alexandera Clairina Blackhood confess of her deeds as a mage practicing high dark arts or" Her face turned to full contempt as he uttered these absurd words. "Or this sinless family who the are enslaved by the spells shall also die"

He pointed his gaze at the sinless souls to alex's right side, where a woman in her fourties was on her knees, to her left, a girl of sixty had wrapped her arms tightly around her stomach and had placed her head on her shoulder, the face of the girl was dulled with grief. The woman had placed her one hand around the girls shoulder and had placed one on her sons shoulders, who was too clinging to his only confort with a mind filled with teror and with eyes which only saw teror before him.

Even the ones with sharp gaze couldn't differentiate between the oil and their tears.

"If it is to end in the ashs of millions of sinless souls, then it will, Roy" She answered with complete self assurance, which was clear enough to grasp the mind of Roy.

"Well then" His face and voice both took a wicked turn as he continued "Then the cosmic beings have made their decision, they shall also face the mercy of god"

The certain man from the crowd surrounding them came aggressively pushing through to the front of it all. He looked like he was in his fourties. His arms were weak, his cloths were torn - i can reasure you that it was always.

He sprinted towards the miserable family as some men geabbes his arms, trying to hold him still to the ground. They tried to hold his head down to the ground as he screamed "You will not get away with this, you will suffer, if not in this life then in another."

"I know how you feel friend, how hard it is for you to witeness your only remaining families death" He viscious mind failed to emitate sympathy "But you must understand the merc...."

"Darn you bastard, Darn you and your lords merce and all who use it to strip the dignity of others" He said as they draged him through the crowd as he felt like he couldn't breath, with a mind which thought of the ground as the highest peak he could ever see.

"First we shall burn the witch" Roy said with the applauding reasurence of the people surrounding them.

"Now would someone please me with the proof of this young lady practicing dark arts" Said a voice with enough athority to silence them all, from the back of the crowd.

The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

"W-william ?" The face of the rown sheriff glinted with panic as he gazed upon a old man in a white horse. He has grey hair and beard, hazal eyes, tall, thick eyebrows and long eyelashs. He had a dark grey staff in his hands.

The crowd splite into two and cleared him a path. "L-long time no see william"

"I am in bit of a hurry " William said still walking " So who was the first three to accuse this lady as a witch ?"

"M-my, my brother Henry, then inspector Alfred and....."

"And ?" William said while glaring at him with his hazel eyes.

"And, and me"

"Nothing unexcepted" Said william "What were the actions of this lady that caused you to fool youself by thinking she is a witch ?"

"S-she disguised herself as a man" He added "Not any, but as one who decided to take the sword. A-and later endangered us by violating the laws of the lindworm, akayan"

"If this woman have truly endangered the lives of this village by violating the principles of the worm, then i can reasure you that i will be standing on top your cropses by now" Will uttered being aware of the goals of the man exclaiming stupidity. "What was the act of violation that occured here"

"She was found snoooing around the west region of the worm, likely to steal the jewel akya for her dark spells i am sure"

"Likely to ?, has the child made any confession"

"No"

"If so your likely is not a proof in the eyes of the council of dwarith" Will excalimed "And tell me roy, when did the three of you see this girl in the west of the forest, at what hour"

"WILLIAM, I DO NOT SEE THE RELAVENCE OF THIS HERE" Roy said about to break "Three people have suspected of her as witch, that is enoug"

"Well, in the eyes of you maybe, but the council of wizards needs proof to differenciate between a hoax and trutj" Will uttered while glaring into roys eyes "Answer my questions with patience or your landlord will not hear good news from us ever again, that wont be good for you either roy" He stood right in front of him a little away.

After short pause, roy said "I-it was almost dark"

"What were you doing there" William questioned. He didn't answer, well, will figured this was the end of what he was able to get from him.

"I reckon you weren't collecting fire wood" Will said "What of this family" He gazed at the three miserable beings shivering in oil.

"T-they were caught using witch artifacts"

Roy said "Potions for curing illness, it was used by the mother, the children are also suspected to use it" At that momment roy was just a vulnerable person in everyway.

William was done with these stupidity and decided to end it "No one in the world with the abilities alike of this girl will not comeback with life in their flesh if they decided to march upto even the weakest of lindworms during the dark hours"

Roy started to melt like wax as william said "Which makes the story you told erlier nothing more than a hoax. According to the law of the great elve kindom, Esfer, woman is allowed to use swords and all the respective weapons. As of the disguisation spell, any person, he or she could be dwarve or human or elves, could use magecreft, if she is allowed by the council of the wizards. And i, william sovereign wizra announce miss alexander clairina blackhood important to the council !"

Alex looked at the man throughout these events with a eye of a egle, for her face shinned with unexplainable feeling mixed with grief and blissfulnes, as if there is a door leading to unknown journey. But all of it was supressed inside a feeling of suspeciouness as her face emotion less face vaguely delievered this message "What do i owe this stranger ?"

"So, that speaks for it self, miss alexandera is a free person !" William ended
