Issy is a 12-year old girl. She is living whit her stepfamily and she is called burning Issy because of her fire marks which she received when she was little. Some thinks she is a witch and that she has sold her soul to the devil.
They who think she is a witch are afraid of her. She burned the witchfinder and he is both afraid and angry, ha want to torture her so she will confess. Iohan says that Issy is not a witch but she has power from the the Horned Man. The Horned Man is not evil, it is a figment from the Christian. The parson wants to help Issy, he is not afraid of her. All he wants is that she will confess. Her family is not afraid of her, they want her to be safe, and her father even punched the person when he tried to make her confess by holding her hand over the fire. All people was afraid of witches during this time, they didn’t care if they were innocent as long as they confessed during torture.
