The Origin of Isaac

When the torch fires bathed the forests and towns, and black fumes rose above the charred hills, she knew the hysteria had found the people of her village once again.

So she fled to the New World, where the churches mania had yet to reach. But her son is already begining the change, and word of witches have flittered about the mouths of men. With fear on everybodies minds, it's only a matter of time before they snap, and the great fires of the witch-hunts finds her home once again.

Basically the same deal with The Circle, except I actually did edit this a bit for a school magazine, so it shouldn't be too awful.

This story is set in the late 15th century american colonies, during the witch trials in salem and the like. This a sort of indirect prequal to my main story in this "Vampire-verse". The good news is this can be read independability to the main story, so you should be able to follow most of everything.

I love this a lot because of how much research I did on the time period and Witch-Hunts in general, and while I do add my own spin on this "alternate" history (Such as knights existing in this time, for reasons that i have fleshed out), I think for the most part you history nerds will have a bit of fun with this one.

Unless I have errors. Then we're both fucked.

Enjoy!
