Fraulein Pfiezel is rumoured to be a witch.
She lives in her cottage, which is a few
hours walk out of the village proper.
It can be reached via a small track that leads
off from the main road, which can be identified by an old abandoned cart that has
become quite overgrown,
Rumour aside, we do know that she likes to keeps to herself
a lot.
On the rare occasions she does come into the village the folks there are deferent
and polite.
She is often wandering the hills to the north of Heiligsheld or the deeper
areas of the woods.
She is an accomplished herbalist and is the locals go to for cures
and remedies.
Her cottage is small, and she has a small herb garden that she maintains
fastidiously.
On her door is the skull of what the villagers say is a Beastmen she
killed for wandering too close.
She claims to know nothing about anything like that,
and she says it is just a skull she found, probably a sheep or goat or something.
She would say that though, she is deaf as a post, even with her hearing trumpet fashioned
from the thigh of a Beastman.
She also has a cat.
