Water in a Sieve. Apocrypha of the Witch

In the village of Cinabro, a recently arrived inquisitor dies under very strange circumstances. A woman nicknamed La Vecchia is accused of his death. Many locals hate her, and it would seem that the case is simple, but the accused behaves too unusually during interrogations, and tells too unusual a story, despite torture and inquiries. And you can’t just brush it off, because according to legend, dragons once lived here, and they still sleep underground, which is why the local mountains contain vermilion, a wonderful mineral that can cure all diseases and grant immortality. At least, that’s what people say. But only pagans living nearby, who call themselves enlightened, can mine it, and the death of the inquisitor is somehow connected to all this. Versions multiply, reality struggles with the unknown, the truth eludes. Perhaps the dragons have already awakened, and now it is unknown who is in greater danger: the accused or her executioners.
