When Charles III ascends the throne, he plans to outlaw magic. It subverts the will of the gods and encourages sex. Worse, it is only practicable by women – a sure sign it comes from The Dark One.
Not everyone agrees. Juliette initiates a desperate plan to save herself and witchcraft.
A short story that examines the consequences of desire and the relationship between politics and religion.
