date the liminal being wandering the woods. they are calling out to anyone whk may listen. their head is adorned antlers and artifacts and their hands are wrapped in forgotten scarves. they move softly, singing at dawn. they love you and want you to be safe

I would die for her

edit: for those wondering, the instrument is a nyckelharpa! Her name is Myrkur and she’s a Danish metal musician. The song is a traditional Swedish folk song called Två Konungabarn

A witch is, actually, a successful (in the sense of surviving) deviant. You have a cultural, ideological, social, what-not pattern which is, for that society in question, normal (and, importantly, this is understood as a synonym for natural). Most people survive because they conform to these patterns, because they behave normally. […] But then suddenly you get a deviant which survives, and since it does not draw its support from the normal pattern, […] that deviant is understood as drawing its support from “unknown,” “supernatural” sources. […] If we cannot survive without our order, how can she [the witch] survive in solitude? Hers must be indeed a very powerful order to exist so independently, without all the inter cooperation and individual compromise which we have to go through to survive. And if it is so powerful, then it could destroy us. We must try to destroy it first.
