The Witch. Troublesome. Mine!

What is the greatest test for a witch? No, it’s not difficult spells and not the potion requiring seventy-eight ingredients. It’s a stubborn earl and his two younger brothers, who—somehow—decided that only a witch could save them from rampaging ghosts and annoying brides. But they didn’t expect that instead of an experienced old woman with a cane, they would be directed here—yesterday’s graduate of the School of Witchcraft and Sorcery. And what would you have them do with them? Of course, they are terribly annoying! But you can’t just leave them to be torn apart, right? The story became the bronze winner of the contest “Cozy Fantasy” in 2023. The first story of the cycle “The Witch of Brodshire.”
