[Ansteorra] Floating Dons (was: GULF WAR WEATHER)

[Peter Wohlers]

In which country and period do you base that information on? In the  
SCA period witches were burned at the stake most cases that I have  
studied. Being a witch was a blasphemy which was a crime against god.  
The inqusition burned witches and heritics. In France during the 14th  
century thousands of people were burned as witches which continued way  
past 1431 when Joan of Ark was burned. During the 15-17th centurys  
witches and heritics were burned in England and Scotland. The Holy  
Roman Empire (Germany) was burning witches before the 1200's. Post SCA  
period more hangings as well as drownings happened to witches but in  
period hanging was more punishment for a civil crime then a religious  
crime of witchcraft.

Also as a member of the order of the White Scarf and TRM Royal  
Inquisitor and Executioner or Persona I would let no harm come to HRM.
