i am having so much fun with this thread

witches are not of the north. antha wondered if that meant women held more power in the ways of men elsewhere. or perhaps they had simply found a different sort of power...
in my homeland, many generations ago, a terrible curse took hold of our women. girl children were born weak, and grew to be small and frail. the men dominated for years, and proved themselves cruel tyrants, antha began the story almost before she decided she would tell him. it had been too long since her history had passed her lips. so my ancestors turned to magick. the women of my home took back their power, generation by generation. the practice was called witchcraft, and it soon became forbidden. men and women have waged a quiet war for years. it still has not been won. but the witches endure, and we are bound to pass on our practice to our daughters, to ensure that they never suffer the way our mothers and grandmothers did.
so that is my plan for the spring. i intend to find a man not of my homeland, a man of integrity, and raise children to carry on the history and legacy of my ancestors.
