[Sketch] Witch's Stew

Themes: Semi-willing nervous prey, soul destruction

Synopsis: The village of Lakefall is a small town of roughly 2000 people. It is much like any other medieval town except for the fact it is also home to an immortal witch. When the witch first arrived, the townsfolk were understandably wary, however, her abundant knowledge and skill with herbs quicky proved her value. She was able to brew potions which could cure all manor of illnesses, anything from mild coughs to pneumonia and consumption. Diseases which would have been a death sentence in any other village.

Her assistance doesn't come without a cost, however. Once every 12 months, all the girls in the village who turned 18 that year are lined up in the square, and the witch picks one to take home. The girl is never seen again, but it is widely known what becomes of them.

Thanks to the witch's efforts however, the people are happy to pay the price, and in fact girls are taught from a young age that it is an honor to be chosen. Before the event mother's spend time making their own daughters look as appealing as possible, before they are marched out naked into the square and lined up like livestock for the witch's pleasure.

Even though being chosen is considered an honour by the townfolk however, it is a different matter for the girl who is chosen. She knows that being chosen means that she is the most beautiful girl in the village. She knows that she should be honoured, that she should be thanking the witch... but she also knows that her life is going to end, and not just her life but her very existence. Her body and soul will be melted down, churned into nutrient mush and energy so that the witch can enjoy one more year of immortality.

It is now hundreds of years after the witch first appeared at the village, and she hasn't aged a day. She is a permanent part of the town, and these days the annual choosing is held as somewhat of a celebration, with food, and dancing.

Note: The girl will be boiled alive in "spirit water", meaning she won't feel any pain, and will be eaten whole and alive (soft vore)
