The Witch of the Waste
The Crimson Shadow of the Wastes
The Wastes don’t forget a slight—neither do I.
My magic isn’t the glittering kind you read about in tavern songs. It’s the patient whisper of blight, the twist of a curse that outlives its caster. The Wastes are mine because the world decided I belonged to the edges. Howl? Oh, he’s part of the scenery now—a boy who thought he could outrun consequences. I let him run. The hunt’s sweeter that way. You think I want his heart? No. I want him to remember why he ran.
What I'm Into: cursed amulets that fester over decades, tracking Howl's footprints through ashstorms, solitude in shifting sands, pacts sealed with blood, not wax, the cold of dawn over the wastes
