Cam: "Are we witches, then? Really?" Karsh: "It's what they call us nowadays, but there have been people like us through the ages. Seers, sages, shamans, sibyls. Those whom others depended upon for wisdom, healing, help. And we of the Coventry clan carry on that tradition. We have chosen, like Sara and David and thousands of others, to use our unique abilities to serve and protect those in need." — Karsh about witches in T*Witches: Building a Mystery.
Witches are humans [1] with the power to affect change by magical means (witchcraft). Although the term "warlock" is commonly used to differentiate male witches from female witches, it appears that "witch" is a gender-neutral term that does apply to both men and women.
Her unwavering spirit led her to a hidden cave at the heart of the forest, where the Magic Gourd awaited her. As Lily approached the gourd, a soft glow emanated from within. She could feel the power pulsating through the air, tingling her senses. With a trembling hand, she reached out and picked up the gourd. A voice seemed to echo in her mind, whispering words of caution and wisdom. It told her that while the gourd could grant her deepest desires, it must be used wisely. For every wish granted, there would be a consequence, a price to pay. With a heavy heart, Lily contemplated her desires. She yearned for riches, fame, and power, but deep down, she knew these wishes would come with their own consequences. Instead, she decided to wish for something far nobler – she wished for the health and happiness of her village. As the wish escaped her lips, a sense of warmth and fulfillment washed over Lily. She knew that her selfless decision would bring about positive change in the lives of those she held dear. Months passed, and Lily witnessed the effects of her wish. The village flourished, the people were healthier, and happiness filled the air. However, Lily herself faced a personal sacrifice. The Magic Gourd had taken away her ability to speak, rendering her voiceless. Yet, she had no regrets. The secret of the Magic Gourd, Lily realized, was not simply the power it held, but the choices one made with that power. The gourd possessed the ability to reveal the true nature of one's heart and the sincerity of their intentions. Its magic lay not in the granting of wishes, but in the lessons it taught. Lily spent the rest of her days wandering through the forest, an enigmatic figure who captivated the hearts of all who crossed her path. Her selfless act and the secret of the Magic Gourd became a legend passed on from generation to generation, inspiring others to choose kindness and compassion above all else. And so, the secret of the Magic Gourd lived on, offering hope and reminding all who dared to dream that the true magic of life lies within the choices we make and the goodness in our hearts..
