Raising Salem
Chloee Breslin
- What's
- a
- witch
- to
- do
- when
- the
- spirits
- drop
- the
- definition
- of
- tall,
- dark,
- and
- handsome,
- not
- to
- mention
- his
- cute
- as
- hell
- cat
- that
- I
- can't
- help
- but
- fall
- in
- love
- with,
- into
- her
- path?
- Work
- together
- on
- a
- blasted
- history
- paper,
- apparently.
- The
- closer
- we
- get
- to
- finding
- answers,
- the
- more
- questions
- we
- find
- ourselves
- asking.
- And
- this
- effing
- paper
- isn't
- the
- only
- history
- we're
- going
- to
- have
- to
- set
- straight...
- because
- everyone
- knows
- that
- magic
- comes
- with
- a
- price,
- but
- even
- we
- can't
- predict
- the
- true
- cost
- of
- our
- ancestral
- lineage's
- gifts.Author's
- Note:
- The
- Salem
- Witch
- Trials
- are
- a
- legitimate
- historical
- event,
- and
- Bridget
- Bishop
- was
- one
- of
- the
- first
- to
- be
- accused
- and
- executed.
- Though
- the
- following
- pages
- are
- based
- in
- history
- both
- written
- and
- oral,
- this
- is
- where
- fact
- ends
- and
- storytelling
- begins.
- All
- persons,
- places,
- events,
- political
- statements,
- characterizations
- of
- historical
- figures,
- and
- other
- elements
- of
- this
- story,
- including
- the
- origin
- of
- witchcraft
- and
- the
- tribal
- ties
- to
- it,
- are
- either
- a
- figment
- of
- the
- author's
- imagination
- or
- a
- fictionalized
- account
- of
- something
- that
- none
- of
- us
- were
- present
- for
- to
- dispute.
- Please
- proceed
- with
- the
- understanding
- that
- this
- story
- was
- created,
- in
- part,
- as
- a
- reminder
- of
- the
- horrors
- of
- prejudice
- and
- that
- one
- who
- does
- not
- learn
- from
- history
- will
- indeed
- be
- doomed
- to
- repeat it.
