Firestarter

The bushfire roared through the small town of Kunjorup. How had it started? Everyone wanted to know. There were rumours of a fire starter, an arsonist. People in the town started to have suspicions about their neighbours, friends, even family members. They all knew someone who was capable of such a thing. Until Selene, the beauty of the village was accused of trying to burn them all in their beds.

Witch? They tied her up and threw her in the river. Alas, she didn’t float. Maybe she was innocent after all. But the fires stopped burning from that day forward.
