She's a witch!?
In the times during the witch trials, everyone was suspicios of everyone else of being the worshipers of Satan. A witch."If the Party suspected be found to have the Devil's mark ; for it is commonly thought, when the Devil makes his Covenant with them,he walkies leaves his mark behind them, whereby he knows them for his own:—a mark whereof no evident Reason in Nature can be given." People were often searched for birthmarks,mole or any other skin abnormalities and were considered proof of a witch. The imperfect mark was considered to be a mark of the Devil's follower since they couldn't be explained in that time. This would end many a lives do a imperfect mark on their skin.
"If it can be proved, that the party hath entertained a Familiar Spirit, and had Conference with it, in the likeness of some visible Creatures ; here is Evidence of witchcraft." Animals such as toads, spirits,certain daog and black cats were believed to be "familiar friend". This meant that said cat could and would witch carry/perform curse or forbidden spells. Some people also thought a witch could into a cat a total of nine time in their lives. This as the beginning to the folklore that "cats have nine lives". The witches would feed their 'familiar friends" inure for their service. By just talking to these animals or familiars was enough proof for a person to be arrested. Owning a creepy,scary doll or being reported to church by a fellow church member that thought you were specified of witch craft could have gotten an innocent person taken to courts and put to death.

Lengend of Satan's book
“By the Witches own Confession, of Giving their Souls to ' the Devil. It is no Rare thing, for Witches to Confess.”
It was thought that the devil walked the forests with a book where he would collect the names of people who would sign their souls over to him. Many people did confess to being witches. It is thought that many people admitted to
being witches in a hope to end their ordeal.
The night and wind swayed together in perfect unison in a dance that created a feeling of chills and loneliness The breeze of the dark night air swept beneath the skirt of her dress. The women shivered empty and scared that she was lost til the warm stroked her face. This was a surprise to her for her had seen no fire or light among the tree and shrubs. The warm grew into a heat that almost seemed to burn her face in the brisk night but for some reason she peered from her caramel eyes in the dark of the woods. There stood a person who stood in the shade of oaks who seemed to hold a hazy, red glow embracing his body. At first glance the tall man looked like no man at all but a beast with wings and sharp horns but the girl was sure she mistaken. Frightened in the strong shadows of the night, she hurried toward the man. However, as the girl approached she realizes how the heat grew and how she seem to lose control of her own mind that seemed to fill with unholy thoughts.The man did not breathe a word but he had no need for this gentleman she had never seen before knew her and she knew him. He out stretched his arm with a thick volume in hand. A star standing on its head and circle traced around it were into the cover. The girl's vision was dizzying as a her finger touched the leather cover. The tall man placed with a her hand a feather with ink tipping it. The book burst open to page with line rolls down its face. Her hand seemed hesitant as if she trying to warned. of some dangerous but within seconds the girls signature graced the paper. And with that the man smirked showing her razor like teeth and turned to a wisp of a flame leaving nothing behind. The women stood there paralyzed by fear. She held her weeping eyes as clasped to the dirt below her. Only thirteen and signed away to serve in the devil's name.
