The sound of a woman's scream could be clearly heard as the church bells rang out to signal the start of the morning.
Soon a woman was seen being dragged away by two men, both of her legs had been broken so that she could not escape.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh."
The woman's voice of pain sounded heart-wrenching, breaking the silence of the morning.
The young woman was dragged by force then tied to a pole. Her screams were heard all the way to the end of the village, and curious people began to emerge one by one after hearing her screams.
"Everyone has decided." A man's voice shouted loudly cutting off the screams of the woman whose clothes had been torn here and there, "you have allied yourself with the devil."
"Let go of me!" The woman shouted, the look in her eyes not implying the slightest fear.
Ignoring the woman's words, the man dressed as a priest who had been ringing the bell came forward and shouted in her ear. "And, have given birth to their offspring! So I must say what the punishment is for you, Marie Blaise!"
"To hell with all of you! I will never do your bidding and don't give a damn about that bullshit of yours!" Marie Blaise shouted back in response.
Marie's bold reaction made the few people who were already on the field exchange glances with each other.
A man in a black robe and hat walked up to Marie and said, "Last chance for you, Marie Blaise. Confess your sins as the last witch here who has given birth to children descended from demons, and I will ease your pain by beheading you before you are burned!"
Marie flinched, her eyes staring hatefully at the people in front of her. Then with one swift movement she spat at the robed man.
Everyone who saw the scene whispered to each other -- shocked by the courage shown by Marie.
Not accepting Marie's treatment, the man in the black hat came forward and pulled Marie's hair until her head popped up.
Marie winced at the pain on her scalp. Without any pity, the man grabbed Marie's hair more forcefully so that several strands of her hair were pulled out by the roots.
With a haughty look, he said, "Remember, Blaise, you have a daughter. Think of her, because I will find and slaughter that little girl." With great pressure, the man continued his words, "will you please our king by confessing all your sins as a follower of the devil!"
"Shameless!" The shabbily dressed woman shouted back. "Disgusting!" Marie spat again at the man who was clearly older than Marie.
The man continued to hurt Marie who was not afraid to fight back even though her body, hands, and feet were bound tightly and strongly.
Meanwhile, in the forest, a young woman was seen running in fear. Her left hand was holding a girl who was approximately ten years old.
Several times her head turned back -- to see if anyone else was following them from behind.
The woman took the little girl running as fast as she could into the forest, and stopped at a spot not far from where Marie was.
"The time has come, they have come. The ones I told you about," said the young woman with a gasp.
"The bad guys?" asked the child questioningly.
"Yes, they are."
The little girl's face looked very calm. She even looked down for a moment as the young woman in front of her pinned something around her neck.
"Wear this necklace, so that God will take care of you. Never let go no matter what."
The little girl nodded and went off alone, leaving the young woman who had been with her.
He ran with the maximum speed he had until he finally made it out of the forest.
Her eyes caught a field filled with grass that was taller than her body.
She slowly made her way through the meadow until her beautiful bead caught a sight she should not have seen.
'They...,' she whispered under her breath.
Meanwhile, in the field where Marie was tied up with a bold look, Marie said that she would never say where her daughter was.
The man in the hat spoke again, "Don't ever say that I'm unfair." Then, with a code, he had two burly men drag Marie back.
Ignoring Marie's screams, the two men dragged her to a pole with a pile of firewood underneath.
They tied Marie's hands together and lit the pile of wood. Marie looked angrily at the burning wood.
"I will definitely find your daughter, Blaise, though it will be the last thing I do. I will follow you all the way to hell. I will wipe your filthy descendants off the face of this earth," said the man in black robes.
At the punishment post, with hatred, Marie scanned the black bead of the man in front of her, then said in a tone that was very firm and without the slightest fear even though the gurgling of the wood licked by the red rooster sounded louder and louder and was capable of breaking the courage of anyone who heard it.
"I curse you, Simon Oberon. As long as Blaise's blood still runs on this earth, your soul is cursed and will be forever damned." Marie let out a fiery curse, "You will live in hell, but not in death nor in this life. That's your curse, Simon!" Marie screamed at the top of her lungs, venting all the anger, hatred, and resentment inside her.
Marie's eyes, which were reddened and slightly glazed with anger and smoke, seemed to flash strangely, and many people who looked at them shuddered in horror.
Meanwhile, behind the weeds, a young girl continued to record in her memory all the events she saw while her necklace emitted a bluish light every time Marie uttered a curse for Simon.
The girl ran away at the sound of the last scream before the towering flames burned Marie alive.
