This massive, ivory-framed portrait of an imperious witch is under watch by several dull-lived guards at all times, for it is said that the painting seeks to become people of note and true power. Someone must always watch it, lest in a blink, the guards may face copies of their superiors angrily declaring that "The ruse must end," and "Death to the impostors!" By folly, a powerful wizard painted a masterpiece construct to replace her lost family and friends. Her town thrived until that wizard was herself replaced, whence she then declared that she the answer for all life woes rest at her brush-tips, a world of perfection awaiting yet unmixed colors.
