The elderly Crone Witch is a stern, limping figure who carries a lantern and speaks in a raspy voice. She is killed by Maevyth with a death glyph.

Description

She is an elderly woman with silvery hair, a hunched posture, and long pointed nails. A cloak covers her, and she carries a lantern. Her expression is stern, and she walks with a limp.

Connections

  • Aleysia BronwickOther

    The Crone Witch took Aleysia in after she escaped the tree, and kept her confined during episodes in which Aleysia became violent and lost her memory.

  • Zevander Rydainnabuser

    Zevander recalls a woman who inflicted prolonged punishments and abuse on him in captivity. The passage calls her ‘she’ but does not identify her by name, so her identity as the Crone Witch is not established here.

  • Maevyth BronwickEnemy

    Maevyth distrusts the Crone Witch and suspects her intentions toward Aleysia were malicious. She identifies the witch as Elowen, who put Aleysia in a pantry.
