Elethea came downstairs with a troubled expression

on her face.

“How is she?” Edward asked, waiting impatiently at the bottom of the stairs.

“She has been through a terrible ordeal, but I think she will be well in a few days.”

“Has she said anything?”

“What is it, mother? You look disturbed.”

“The girl told me she was bewitched into marrying a warlock. She told me it was he she fl ed from.”

“A...warlock?”

“Yes.”

“Do you believe her?”

“I am afraid I do. She is weak, but not delirious. And it is not my inclination to think she is mad.”

Edward’s mouth fell open a little. This was more than he had been prepared for.

“I had better inform the magistrate. If this be true, then the warlock may come here to look for her.”

“Yes. That is a most prudent idea. Inform Judge

Townsend. I cannot send the poor child away in her present condition. I should think she will need several days to recover from her injuries, then we can send her back to her family. Let us hope this warlock does not come here to look for her.”

“I shall not be long,” Edward said, then left to see the judge.
