The "Sleeping Witch" above Bischofswiesen
This remarkably shaped mountain in the Berchtesgaden area presents all the features of what most people would imagine to be a witch like out of the fairy-tales lying on her back - the forehead, the tilted nose, the stiff lower lip, the neck, and, as the guides on the Königssee boats will never fail to say when pointing out this formation to the public: "and. so. on.

Thick fog clung to the air, making it impossible to see beyond a few steps. Ancient trees with gnarled branches reached out like skeletal hands, creating an eerie atmosphere. Brave souls who dared venture into the forest had to navigate through treacherous paths and overcome various obstacles. Only those with pure intentions and unwavering determination could hope to find the sleeping witch. Legend had it that the sleeping witch could be awakened by the kiss of true love. Countless adventurers tried to awaken her with a kiss, believing that true love's power would transcend time and awaken her from her slumber. But none succeeded, and the witch remained dormant. As the years passed, fewer and fewer people sought the sleeping witch. Many believed her existence to be nothing more than a fable. But there were still those who clung to the hope of fulfilling their deepest desires. One day, a young girl named Lily embarked on a journey to find the sleeping witch. Her grandmother had told her the tales of the witch and instilled in her a belief in the power of dreams and wishes. Day after day, Lily pressed forward through the thickets and overgrown bushes, her determination guiding her steps. She faced darkness and uncertainty, but she did not waver. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, she stumbled upon a small clearing. In the center stood an aging stone monument, covered in vines and moss. And there, nestled among the roots of a colossal tree, lay the sleeping witch. Her face was serene, and her chest rose and fell ever so slightly. Lily approached the witch cautiously, her heart pounding with anticipation. She leaned in, hesitating for a moment, before softly placing a kiss upon the witch's forehead. A gentle breeze rustled through the trees, and the air seemed to hold its breath. Suddenly, the witch's eyes fluttered open, revealing their deep green hue. She fixed her gaze upon Lily with a mixture of wisdom and confusion. "You have awakened me," the witch whispered, her voice a gentle melody. "Tell me, child, what is your greatest wish?" Lily's eyes filled with determination as she spoke. "I wish for the world to be filled with love and understanding. I wish for everyone to find happiness and peace." A smile played upon the witch's lips as she nodded. "Your wish shall be granted, dear child. But remember, true magic lies within each and every one of us. It is up to you to spread love and kindness in the world." With those words, the witch closed her eyes once more, falling back into her eternal slumber. Lily left the forest with a renewed sense of purpose, ready to make a difference in the world. And so, the tale of the sleeping witch lived on, reminding people of the power of dreams and the importance of spreading love. Perhaps one day, another courageous soul would venture into the forest, in search of their own wish. But for now, the sleeping witch remained undisturbed, nestled among the roots of the colossal tree..
Reviews for "Steeping in Sorcery: The Sleeping Witch's Rituals for Nighttime Magic"
- Sarah - 2 stars - I found "The Sleeping Witch" to be extremely slow-paced and lacking in any real excitement. The story seemed to drag on and I couldn't help but lose interest halfway through. The characters felt one-dimensional and the plot was predictable, making it difficult to fully invest in the story. Overall, I was disappointed with this book and wouldn't recommend it.
- Mark - 1 star - "The Sleeping Witch" was a complete letdown for me. The writing style was mediocre at best, with clunky dialogue and awkward sentence structure. The plot was convoluted and confusing, jumping from one storyline to another without any clear direction. I didn't connect with any of the characters and found myself not caring about the outcome of their journeys. This book failed to captivate me and I regret spending my time on it.
- Jessica - 2 stars - I had high hopes for "The Sleeping Witch" but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The pacing was incredibly slow and there were too many unnecessary details that didn't contribute to the overall story. The writing lacked depth and didn't evoke any emotional response from me. The ending felt rushed and unresolved, leaving me with more questions than answers. Overall, I was left feeling disappointed and unsatisfied with this book.
- David - 1 star - "The Sleeping Witch" was a tedious read. The plot was predictable and lacked any real originality. The characters were forgettable and their actions often felt forced and unrealistic. The constant exposition and info-dumping made it difficult to stay engaged in the story. I found myself skimming through pages just to get to the end. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone looking for an exciting or original fantasy novel.
