  INTRODUCTION 
  
  They call these Books of Shadows - volumes of 
  collected knowledge grown over each witch's
  life. So these pages hold countless riches,
  or at least list all their ingredients.
  The mortal men who try to crack the spine
  of books like these transform into
  pigs or donkeys, while the women reduce
  to salt columns or fire. It's their design,
  to keep the witches' chants for the witches.
  The secrets inside would wreak more havoc
  than what amounts to a surplus of bacon.
  so let those formed to read it reference
  these pages. It is more safe to ask a witch for
  her help when needed, than barge through her door.
