"Your Lordship, the surgeon Emile Denoir is his best friend and will be our guardian" "He doesn't seem adequate to me, he's a man with inconvenient ideas" "I'll speak with your father about this matter" " But your Lordship" " No, don't thank me," "I wish the best for you." "I'll find someone more appropriate" "Your Lordship, I beg you, let my father die in peace, he has already expressed his will" "I know what's best for you and I'll do as my conscience dictates" "Will I discover the face of the man who had Jean killed tonight?" "Perhaps, but our master will give you the revelation when he wishes and no one knows his designs" "Serve him faithfully and he will indulge you" "Here and there" "That man, the judge, he's the devil" "You shall be the living altar" "Arman, you've done wisely" "I know you'll care for Elvire and Catherine like a real father" "Elvire, my daughter" "If I die, the magistrate shall be your guardian and will govern the household" "He's a just man, honor him as you've honored me" "Your sister, I almost never see her." "I fear death arriving without her at my side" "Catherine, our father is very ill and wants to see you" "Didn't you hear me?" "Father is dying and wants to see you" "Emile won't be our guardian, the judge has convinced father and he will be the one taking charge of us and the household" "Don't fear sister, that man won't be able to do anything to us" "My master will protect us and destroy him" "I am powerful now, and strong, no one can harm me" "Catherine, you're scaring me" "If the judge finds out about what you and Madeleine are doing..." "When I fly to the sabbat, and see the whole world so small at my feet, when I know I can bring down rain and hail, when I think about how I can create hate or love," "I'm happy once again" "In the sabbat my flesh, my entrails cry out with pleasure, everything is permitted" "Our master is generous and richly rewards those who serve him well" "Elvire, you must come with me, you must come" "With this potion you can poison the flocks and cause the crops to be lost wherever you spill it and if you invoke Asmodeus at the same time no woman can be made with child and all the plants shall dry up" "Belladonna and mandrake, heliotrope flowers and wolfsbane root" "Mabille, everything you've ordered I've done faithfully, but tell me when I'll learn who Jean's killer is" "That's the most important thing to you, right?" "You'll have a new dream where you'll see your lover's death, but this time you'll see the face of his murderer" "On the night of the full moon, before going to bed, you'll drink this philtre" "You'll think strongly of those you suspect, then sleep will come and you will see the face of he who ordered Jean's death" "To take vengeance on him you'll use your body, you'll defeat him with lust, you'll make him your slave" "His love for you shall be his ruin and his doom" "Yes your Lordship, the witch is called Mabille and lives on the mountain, until now no one's dared to denounce her because they're afraid of her powers, they say she's the queen of the sabbat" "And you Renover, aren't you afraid of such a powerful witch?" "Yes your Lordship," "I must confess that I was scared at first as well, but finally my conscience as a good Christian overcame my fears" "I must also tell you that Mabille often gets visits from certain important people," "there are those that have seen them Lordship" "Important people?" "The case is very delicate and I forbid you to speak to anyone about this matter, if you betray my confidence I will punish you severely" "I'll faithfully carry out what your order your Lordship" "And those important people, are you the one that's seen them?" "Elvire, forgive us but we want to know how your father is doing" "Badly, everything is in the Lord's hands" " We'll pray for him" " May God bless you" "Bernard, it was you?" "You?" "Good evening surgeon, how is the patient?" "He died this evening your Lordship." "Good evening" "That man is insolent" "Catherine, why have you come?" "What do you want at this hour?" "Don't you know?" "You've desired me since you saw me for the first time" "You convinced my father, only to have me" "No, I did it for your sake, for yours and your sister's" "You lie, you want only me." "Very well," "take me now" "Catherine, I beg you, leave" "Catherine, you will damn me, I know it" "Today they'll take old Mabille to the stake" "They've proved she's a witch, though we in the village have known for a long time" "They threw her in the river and she floated like cork, so she's a witch" "Later they tortured her, but old Mabille is tough, not one name came from her mouth" "You've denounced her like the others, right you scum?" "She's a horrible old woman, but I didn't denounce her" "It was Margot, the vergers wife" "I only want to see the young ones burn, only them!" "You're a wretch!" "You all despise me but I'm a man like any other, that's why I hate you, I hate you!" "Damned witch, daughter of the devil!" "You'll pay!" "You'll all pay!" "Lord of the Underworld, my master, give me strength to destroy them all, all of them" "Catherine, Mabille couldn't prevent her own death" "Those powers she thought she had were of no use to her, no demon came to rip her from her executioner's hands" "I was wrong to take you, I thought she could help us, but she died without being able to do anything" "She was just a poor defenseless old woman" "You and I have flown over the mountains, we've touched the stars we've attended the sabbat and worshiped the Lord of the Night" "It's true, it's all true!" "It has to be..." "I need it Madeleine, I need it" "Yes your Lordship, they frequently visited Mabille, I've seen them" "And why haven't you said so before?" "Forgive me your Lordship, I did" "I spoke, I spoke with the judge" "What?" "You spoke with the judge?" "Yes, yes your Lordship, and he told me to keep my silence" "Then you're disobeying him!" "He ordered you to keep quiet!" "Your Lordship, my conscience as a good Christian wouldn't allow me rest," " the gravity of the case is evident" " Yes, yes, I understand" "The matter is delicate, I must reflect on it" "Renover, if I have need of you I'll send for you." "You may go" "And never forget that the Malignant One uses women to lead men to their damnation" "But the judge is an incorruptible and austere magistrate, a paragon of virtue" "That's precisely why Satan will try harder to corrupt him" "And you won't deny that Catherine's beauty could drive any man mad" "Yes, you're right" "You're right" "She tried to seduce him from the beginning" " I imagine you noticed" " Now that you say so..." "Then he tried to convince Arman to name him steward of the household and guardian of his daughters," "bastard interests that are at odds with our high mission" "And as if that weren't enough, he hid the visits Catherine paid to the witch from us" " Renover could have lied" " Renover told the truth!" "I know men well and I know when they lie" "The matter is grave, and we must act with great prudence, but with all the rigor our position demands" "Damn you, damn you infernal spirit, you have defeated me" "You've sent that woman to be my perdition and I no longer have strength to fight you" "Catherine, why have you made me come to this place?" "I was here with Jean that last day" "We loved each other like never before, but then he left, never to come back" "Some gutless coward had him murdered," "but that villain is already sentenced, and very soon he'll pay for his crime" "Today I want you and I to love one another here, here in the same place where Jean held me for the last time" "What are you afraid of magistrate?" "I don't fear you Catherine," "I've sent hundreds of heretic witches to the stake, none of them could harm me" "I've seen you and Madeleine return at dawn, and I know where you're coming from" "Why haven't you had me burn?" "Because I love you Catherine, though I know you'll drag me to hell with you" "You had Jean killed" "No Catherine, they killed him to rob him," "I had nothing to do with it, nothing" "You must pay" "I've made a pact with the Lord of the Night, my soul in exchange for yours" "What are you looking for here Renover?" "For a witch" "A witch?" "Isn't that what the three of you are?" "Filthy daughters of the devil" "I'm no witch!" "You lie Renover, you lie!" "I've seen Madeleine and your sister go to Mabille's house" "Your sister has bewitched the judge, they meet in secret, I've seen them" "You'll all go to the stake" "But if you're clever and give me what I want, you'll be saved" "No, let me go!" "Let me go!" "This is the declaration Renover signed before he died" "As you can see, Catherine's guilt is obvious" "Renover is a wretch, this declaration could be a pack of lies" "No man, no matter how wicked, would lie when he knows he's at death's door" "But Renover killed two defenseless women" "Forgive me Lordship, they killed him" "I'm convinced they brought him there through deceit to murder him" "They were scared of him, he had been witness to their heresies" "That's why Renover defended himself and slew them, though he lost his life as well" "This isn't enough for me to condemn Catherine," " it's not enough!" " You know it's enough, but there are also more witnesses that are prepared to testify" "The witch shall pay" " I'm the judge!" " And you will judge her" "We'll submit Catherine to the pertinent tests to prove she's a sorceress" "Your attitude surprises me Lordship, the matter is quite clear" " Confess!" " It's not true!" "It's not true!" "Confess that you've produced tempests and lain with the devil's dragon" " Confess you're a witch!" " Lord, have pity on me, you don't want to martyr my body, you want to damn my soul, but one day you'll have to give account to my Redeemer, one day!" "Confess!" "Your Lordship, I've found the spot." "There's no blood, there's no pain" "You can see it for yourself" "Look at this your Lordship, here the nail of the Malignant One has left its mark" "Confess you're a witch!" "Confess you've worshiped and served the devil!" "Confess!" "Yes, I've worshiped the Lord of the Underworld," "I've served him faithfully," "I've given myself to him, I've been to the sabbat, I've cast spells," "I'm a witch!" "I am!" "But that damned bastard has been my lover," "I swear it, before going to the stake I swear it!" "He's helped me, together we've held the rites, together we've worshiped the devil!" "My master will destroy you, he won't allow you to harm me!" "Bastards!" "Your Lordship, I want to show you something."
