Five witches were tried and killed for the crimes in the widower's wood. Lead witch is buried on the grounds to keep her secure. Exact scandal is unknown. Father Pandor Dumas answers door, bows curtly and intro's as High Prelate of Corvis and pillar of the community. He is fortyish with gray hair and bald with side tufts, wearing simple robes and wearing EXPENSIVE holy symbol.

Reason for scandal was Ulfas Borlach, head magistrate led investigator, prosecutor, judge, and executioner. (The trial was by jury. But people even went so far as to accuse them of being hand-picked.)
