The air in Wintervale was thick with the scents of spices-cinnamon, cloves, and the faint sweetness of candied orange peel. Snow blanketed the cobblestone streets, and the village square was alive with the laughter of townsfolk preparing for the inaugural "Feast of the Season" festival. It was a time for unity, a celebration of life as the year reached its end. But for Agnes d'Fleur, it was the culmination of something far darker.

The air in Wintervale was thick with the scents of spices-cinnamon, cloves, and the faint sweetness of candied orange peel. Snow blanketed the cobblestone streets, and the village square was alive with the laughter of townsfolk preparing for the inaugural "Feast of the Season" festival. It was a time for unity, a celebration of life as the year reached its end. But for Agnes d'Fleur, it was the culmination of something far darker. In the shadow of the village's towering chapel, Agnes stirred the contents of her copper pot. Her weathered hands, steady and deliberate, moved as though guided by an unseen force. The fire beneath the cauldron crackled and hissed, sending sparks into the chilly December air. Her pale blue eyes, as sharp and unyielding as ice, reflected the swirling mixture before her. It was no ordinary recipe she was crafting-this was an alchemy of despair, vengeance, and desperation. Agnes had once been Wintervale's most celebrated cook. Her creations were the soul of every festival, bringing joy to the hearts of all who tasted them. But when a plague swept through the village, her husband and child were the first to perish. Stricken with grief, she sought solace in her art, only to find herself accused of witchcraft by the very people she had once fed. It was Ethan Greaves' ancestor, the village leader, who delivered the final blow-a decree that banished her from her home, branding her an outcast. The recipe book, bound in worn leather and adorned with faded gold embossing, lay open on the wooden table before her. Its pages, yellowed with age, pulsed faintly as if alive. Agnes had discovered it in the ruins of an old apothecary, hidden beneath a floorboard. The whispers began the moment she touched it, insidious and seductive, promising her the power to exact justice. "The feast must continue," they said, over and over, like a chant she could not escape. With every ingredient she added to the pot, the whispers grew louder. Blood-red cranberries burst in the bubbling mixture, releasing a tangy aroma. A single black feather, dipped in honey, dissolved into the brew. A pinch of ash from the village square firepit-the site of countless celebrations-sent the concoction into a violent boil. As Agnes worked, the whispers shifted into voices. They spoke of hunger and longing, of debts unpaid and wrongs unrighted. Her heart, hardened by betrayal, latched onto their promises. The villagers had taken everything from her. This recipe would ensure they paid the price. By the time the festival began, Agnes was ready. She stood at the edge of the square, her face hidden beneath a dark hood. The feast stretched across long tables laden with roasted meats, pies, and mulled cider. At its center sat her masterpiece: a towering cake adorned with sugared fruits and shimmering glaze. Its aroma was irresistible, its allure undeniable. The first bite was taken by the mayor himself, the very man who had cast Agnes out. His eyes widened in delight, but within seconds, he began Grab your copy today and uncover the secrets hidden in Wintervale's past!
