The story: Katla and Margit are sisters, although Katla the eldest.
They travel away from their home where their mother was stoned like many others for being a witch.
Katla also practices witchcraft and promises to find them a home by capturing a mans heart.
Soon she does just as she said. Katla marries a widow who has a young son.
But his son does not like Katla at all , especially after he sees her casting a spell.
The young boy tries to convince his father that Katla is different than them and he will never accept her as his mother , but his father will not listen.
When Katla finally has one last argument with the young boy and he falls to his death , she covers it up and uses his death to her advantage as long as the secret can be kept.
