"A message has been sent from the duke" Catherine said.
"It must be urgent go ahead and read it" Mary said moving towards Catherine.
"Oh my Goodness" Catherine exclaimed her left hand on her mouth.
"What is it mother?" Mary said impatiently.
"We must arrive at the river bank by noon for cleansing how could i have forgotten" Catherine said her hand on her forehead.
"Oh " Mary said in relief.
"Did you say NOON?" Mary realised again.
"Yes we must hurry its almost noon" Catherine ushered Mary up.
"Mother i need to go some where " Mary rushed out of the cottage.
"Mary have you gone mad? Comeback here" Mary yelled after her.
Mary ran into the woods she had to get there and meet bethel before she drowns.

"Well that woman in chains" victor pointed at bethel " is a WITCH" victor said in disgust the whole crowd gasped .
"No wonder strange things occur in landmark" a villager said from the crowd.
"Yes and God spoke to the pope and the witch must be drowned NOW" victor roared with anger.

The guards held bethel and pushed her towards the river.
"STOP!" Mary ran out of the crowd to the duke and duchess "she's innocent she's an angel" Mary yelled
"WHAT?"pope Silas said in disbelieve.
"She's no angel but a witch" victor looked at her Baffled.

"No please spare her life" Catherine knelt down by the duke pleading in tears.
"She should be kept in the church for now in other not to possess anyone that's my judgement" victor said .
Margret looked at the girl like there is truth in all she has said .
"In the mean time drown the witch"
"NO" Mary cried as she was being held my the guards .
As the guards throw bethel into the river to drown bethel did not struggle instead all her clothes fell off and a bright light appeared and she disappeared into thin air.
"Sorcery" pope Silas said in barely a whisper .
The whole crowd gasped in shock.
