Legend has it that only girls can freely use magic. They awaken at birth, inherit mysterious and ancient powers, and become fearsome witches, passing their abilities down from generation to generation.

Witches can give birth to boys, too, but those boys aren't so lucky.

Abigail follows her mother into a second marriage and moves to a new manor, where she begins living a life of comfort. It is also there that she uncovers a secret buried for many years.

Theme: Stay kind.
