Mother Tydfil didn’t anticipate any danger when the woman descended from the frozen mountains. She should have sensed her aura – what’s the use of being a witch if you can’t recognize your own kind? However, the young woman took over her cottage, and Mother Tydfil disappeared. Rhiannon Turner, a witch, had a purpose for being there until she met Evan Harding. Their encounter changed everything; she never intended to fall for a married man, become pregnant, or earn the wrath of Evan’s wife, Elizabeth. Elizabeth sought revenge, plotting to frame Rhiannon for witchcraft and have her executed. Rhiannon fled but was captured before reaching the mountains. She gave birth in a field, her newborn left to perish. Without a defense, Rhiannon faced the stake, cursing the village of Treharne before the flames consumed her.
