the witch

Her hair was matted, scraggly, and untidy, out into a messy bun, swept back. On top, she wore a tall, aciculated hat that made her look hairless. Her face was withered, with patches of white skin. Lips, dry, a deep purple lip lathered unevenly over them. She had a dark complexion. Her eyes were coal-black, all of it. Her fingers were long, thin, and pale. Pale to the point, where you could see the blue lines of her veins.

Her nails were especially dirty, some broken, others long and black. She wore an oversized purple robe and a crystal necklace around her neck. Her ears were pointy, crooked even. She had a thin, skinny figure, her waist too small, and arms the size of sticks. Her voice was raspy, nasal, and breathy. She wore large black boots, with a pointy edge. She had a cat too, a black one, Esme. her cat resembled her. White patches all over. Esme had grey eyes, unlike Beatrice.
