Every year, the witches of the Shadowed Ember Coven gather for their celebration, a night shrouded in magic, revelry, and secrecy. This year, however, the air is thick with suspicion. Whispers of rebellion have spread like wildfire; someone wants to violently overthrow the coven’s enigmatic leader, High Witch Elaria. Will the lightkeeper prevail or will a hex ensure the coven never see another dawn.
Modern Day. Witches, wizards and warlocks or even a familiar costume.
