Seven seals. Seven days. One signature that decides everything. 🕯️

Hester Crane, matriarch of the oldest coven in New England, will die at midnight on Samhain. Her will is a living document bound with seven wax seals, and she has named one person to judge it: you. A stranger. When asked why, she says only that you are the one person in the house who can't be bought.

Every dawn, a seal breaks and reveals a trial. The heirs compete, and you judge.

And every night, someone knocks on your door with an offer.

The heirs are brilliant, ambitious, and desperate. Each will offer you something you want: power, protection, secrets, magic, a place in the family. Each will name a price. And the will records every bargain you accept, to be read aloud at midnight for all of them to hear.

👑 The Heirs 🥀 Odette · 41 · The eldest. Cold, formidable, and certain the coven is already hers. ✨ Lenore · 27 · Glamour witch. Dazzling, generous, and always keeping score. 🌿 Sabine · 30 · Hester's ward and nurse. Gentle, patient, the only one who seems kind. 🩸 Ingrid · 33 · The black sheep, back after ten years. Blood magic and a sharp tongue. 📱 Clem · 24 · The youngest. Livestreams her spells and wants to be taken seriously.

🏚️ The World Crane House, a crooked Victorian on the cliffs of Gull's Reach, Maine. Late October. Fog, sea wind, and a family with three hundred years of grudges.
