“Gather ye ryte close, goode people.
Come close untyl the fire near scorch ye, for I charge ye that alle must see how thee last true wytch in England dies.
For wytch I am, for soe I am judged, yette I knoe not what my true Cryme may be.
And therefore let myne deathe be a messuage to the worlde.
Gather ye ryte close, I saye, and marke well the fate of alle who meddle with suche as theye do notte understande.”
Thirty seconds later an explosion took out the village green, scythed the valley clean of every living thing, and was seen as far away as Halifax.
. . . any divine or devilish intervention had been materially helped by the contents of Agnes’s petticoats, wherein she had with some foresight concealed eighty pounds of gunpowder and forty pounds of roofing nails.

If that voice was a stone it would have had words chiseled on it a long time ago: a name, and two dates.

Sadly, this round of A Tattered Page is almost over.
If you haven’t stopped by The Library yet, you have today and tomorrow to drop everything and run over there to grab all the goodies.
One of the amazing items for sale is this medieval style dress from Senzafine.
Agnes Nutter, whose prophecies are a major factor in helping to stop the coming Apocalypse, is a minor character in the novel.
But what a character. 😛
I love that the dress has little lumps and bumps in the skirt to simulate the hidden gunpowder and nails.
The messy, windblown hair is a recent group gift from Truth, and I thought it was perfect for this photo.
The necklace is one I’ve had for a while, but I thought the crystal was something a witch would wear, and it looks so good paired with the dress.
In the second picture are two items from @->~ISD, a new-to-me store.
The Death goggles come in both silver and gold versions.
I love the little skull detail on the front.
The bandanna comes in two versions as well, the Death grinning one shown here and a laughing one (which is equally terrifying to look at).
I know Death is typically shown as a male, but I figure Death can probably be whatever he/she wants, right?
Hurry on over to ATP before the round ends – run!
