"At midnight, the witch transforms in the underfloor space through twelve knives. Her upper half becomes a magpie-messenger, while the lower half of her body, as the witch flies around looking for a place, is kept hidden beneath the floor, under a filthy trough. The messengers fly with a barely visible blue flame".

*Filthy trough – a trough used for feeding livestock
